Hello,
I just turned on my pavilion dv6 laptop (almost three years old) and it doesn't boot. Instead, I get a blackscreen.
The capital block and the numerical block lights turn on and off all the time, but I can't do anything. I can't enter the bios, the recovery or anything. My computer just appears to be on limbo and I can only turn it off by pressing the power button.
I have windows 7.
Thank you very much for your support

Hi,
Thanks for the help.
I looked around and tried to flash it with a usb but it didn't worked.
I took it to repair and it turned out there was some part broken, some chip, due to overheating or something.
So that's it, problem solved.
Thanks again for the support.
