I bought two new hp laptops

today. Haven't used it. Just plugged it in and it comes up with a CMOS checksum invalid message. And the battery writes plugged in but doesn't add any percentage. It shows white light when I plug it and sometimes the white light blinks 5 times. It offs once I unplug the charger.

From where did you purchase the laptops?

 

You should be able to  get an RMA to get a replacement on the non-working unit.

 

You can start at the hyperlink below.
