HP ProBook 450 G8
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi all - a HP ProBook 450 G8 was reported by a user at our company to have spilled Coffee onto it and initially the display was showing vertical streak lines across the screen and has gradually worsened overtime to cover the whole screen.

 

So I have done some troubleshooting myself by using a external monitor and confirmed it was a hardware failure. I was working perfectly fine and I had stored away and after 2 weeks I tried to power it ON but had this issue come up where as soon as you connect the charger, the CAPS-lock and the Power Jack port LED lights come ON and stay constantly lit until I disconnect the charger - the Power Key button LED initially flashes when charger is connected and goes off again whilst the CAPS-Lock and Power Jack port LED stay constant lit.

 

Have contacted Support and they have concluded the the mainboard is now faulty - could some techie here confirm if there is a possibility I can get this laptop fixed on the mainboard level....
