Pavilion 15-cc561st
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Recently my brothers HP Laptop (15-cc561st) started having issues with its hard drive, so naturally I opened up the laptop to check the hard drive to figure out which one the laptop has, to get him a new one to replace it. After resembling the machine and trying to boot back up, however, I got an issue where the power light would blink on and off in 5 second intervals, no beeping from the MB, no LED emission from the caps lock (a common place everyone else is seeing the LED codes), and a black screen. What may have went wrong? Has anyone seen this LED code and could tell me what the problem is so I can resolve it?

I understand that the laptop will not boot and the power light is blinking.

 

Please click on the below links once you identify the blink code and resolve the issue:
