HP Laptop 15-dc0xxx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Had issue trying to get my screen display on. One day my laptop couldnt turn on when i had the power button on. There is sound, power light button, screen light but nothing display. So i tried holding on the power button to shut it down then i would hold on it again so it would restart. Then i will proceed to press the power on and it works. But the thing is whenever i turn on my laptop, same issue happen again and i'll have to keep doing the same thing to get the screen display on. It doesn't seem like a hardware problem to me as everything works fine while im using it. Not sure if it is because of windows since my laptop opt for me to update when i shut off my laptop few days prior to this issue.

@Omenuser99 Check with a flashlight, does that show the image? if yes, this could be a back light failure, if not, here's what you need to do, to identify the issue and resolve it accordingly:

  • If not done already, check if it works fine on the BIOS screen to identify if it's either a hardware or a software issue:
    • If it works fine on the BIOS (Accessed while tapping F10 during a restart) it's a software issue & I suggest attaching an alternate monitor to your device and creating a new user account to check if that works better, for starters)
    • However, if it doesn't work within the BIOS either, I'm afraid it's a hardware malfunction.

While you respond to that, I have a few more steps that should help: 

Perform a power reset (no data loss) using these steps: Click here, proceed to next step if this works

Attempt to run a test from the HP hardware diagnostic tool, using this link: Click here for details.

 

If the issue appears on the diagnostics, it could again, determine a hardware failure,

If they don't appear on bios & the hardware tests passed: please update the BIOS & Chip-set drivers from the HP website using this link: Click here

 

if the issue persists, reinstall windows using the recovery partition or the recovery media to fix the issue,
use this link for details on performing the recovery: Click here
