I reviewed your post and I understand that you are hearing a creaking noise from the hinges when you open and close the laptop.

 

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

 

As you have mentioned that you bought the laptop yesterday, and the hinges are new and that could be a reason why the noise is coming from the hinges. However, if you wish you can return the laptop and get a replacement or you can contact support and they will assist you in this regard.

 

Here is how you can get in touch with support.

 

1)Click on this link – www.hp.com/contacthp/

2)Select the product type.

3)Enter the serial number of your device or select let HP detect your product option.

4)Select the country from the drop-down.

5)You should see the HP phone support number or Chat option listed.

 

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!
