I am trying to connect a Dell WD25 docking station to my HP Spectre 15-chooo laptop. I have did all the checks and updates of drivers but laptop still won't power on with the docking station. When I put in my dell laptop it works of course.

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query.
The HP Spectre x360 15-ch000 service documentation outlines the following power and connection specifications for your laptop:
- Power Requirements: Depending on your exact model's processor, the laptop requires a 90-W AC adapter (for Intel Core i7-8550U models) or a 150-W AC adapter (for Intel Core i7-8705G models).
- Port Capabilities: The laptop features a standard 4.5-mm Smart pin AC barrel connector as well as USB Type-C / Thunderbolt ports that support USB Power Delivery, DisplayPort output, data transfer, and Thunderbolt docking station.
Take care and have an amazing day!
