Hello

First, try a hard reset:

Remove the battery and unplug the DC power adapter.
Press and hold the power button for more than 15 seconds.
Plug the DC power adapter (leave the battery for now)
Press the power button

View your results.

If no joy, repeat the hard reset in a dark room and have a flashlight handy. Shine the flashlight on the LCD screen. If you see a very Dim normal Windows login screen so the display inverter is probably not and must be replaced.

Is your laptop still under warranty? Check the label of arcoded on the bottom of the laptop.

Best regards

  • HP pavilion Dv6 laptop: does not start in normal mode, safe mode

    Hi all

    I have HP Pavilion DV6 laptop with windows 7 Home premium 64-bit OS. It was working fine up until two or three days.

    After that some software upgrades, it has stopped booting.   When I tried to start it in safe mode, it stops at disk.sys.

    I don't have win 7 OS CD or recovery CD.  So I downloaded the trail version of windows 7 SP1, I want to install this, but he is suspended the windows logo.  I Googled it has bitten, I loaded a linux kernel and access the hard disk.  I backed up all the files required by using this boot of linux.

    I don't know what to do now?  What is the problem with my system. When I ran the drive diagnostic. It was a failure. That means that I can't use this HARD drive?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Concerning

    Hi stephane,

    Well the error code certainly would indicate that the player began to fail, but just in case, you might try to wipe the entire hard drive first and then reinstalling the operating system as described below.

    Download and install Killdisk on the link below - (this application will write zeros to the entire disk).

    http://Software.LSoft.net/KillDiskSuiteFree-Setup.exe

    Download and install ImgBurn on the link below.

    http://download.CNET.com/ImgBurn/3000-2646_4-10847481.html

    Access the application of disc kill you have installed in all programs, open the main folder, then select Bootable Disk creators, then the BACK Bootable CD Creator that will burn the ISO on a blank CD bootable.

    During the following process do not worry about all warnings as your Windows 7 installation disk will reformat the HARD drive.

    Insert this CD into your PC which is unable to load the operating system properly. Close Notepad, and then start again to boot from the CD of Killdisk and follow the instructions on the screen to kill disk.

    A brief description of the process here is Killdisk.

    Use it to wipe the entire hard drive, Select (80 h) and press f10 (you will also need to type a confirmation and press enter) - ( This will make sure to include all of the partitions , and then start the process - this may take a few hours!).

    When the process is complete, remove the CD of Killdisk and try to reinstall Windows 7.

    If it still does not work, I think your only option is to replace the HARD drive.

    Kind regards

  • Pavilion dv6: computer HP pavilion laptop does not start and I do not see the screen because it's broken

    I have the HP pavilion computer laptop windows 7 and I broke the screen about a year, I can't see the start menus. I have been using an external monitor and it has always worked well, but now I can't see how to fix my computer to boot.  I did a hard boot but nothing happened, and with a broken screen, I can't see any of my options on how to fix it.  It does not start.  Looks like it is, but because I don't see the menu F8 or Boot, I can't call themselves that the screen can be done.  Help, please.

    Hello @SPKaler,

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums, I would like to draw your attention to the HP Forums Guide first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    I read your post on the issue with the laptop won't start does not and wanted to help you!  I understand that the screen is damaged and you are using the external monitor to view the screen.  However, now that the laptop does not start, you can see is more of the external screen to see what is happening.

    From my understanding, you should not be able to see an image on the external monitor, until you start the operating system.  You can try to perform a system restore by using this document:

    HP computers - performing a recovery of system HP (Windows 7)

    You may be able to follow along, long enough until the image is displayed on the external monitor.  Otherwise, you can contact HP support by phone, for additional options.

  • HP Pavilion dv7t-3000 does not start

    My HP Pavilion dv7t-3000 does not start. I checked this article: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01732674

    According to who, the error condition is: 'non-functional CPU.

    So if I buy a new processor and disassemble the laptop and replace the processor, it will fix the problem?

    Perhaps, but it is much more likely to be the motherboard. If the motherboard is bad, you can't trust the blink codes that it generates. Failures of the CPU but rarely occur. Motherboard failure happens all the time.

  • My laptop does not start after cleaning

    Hello
    I knew an overheating problem on my laptop.
    I therefore decided to remove a processor heat sink and empty dust. It was released with processor...
    There was a huge load of dust, so I cleaned it, put new thermal paste...

    Now computer laptop does not start loading Windows.
    It checks only the CD, HARD disk, and that's it.
    Screen is blank, ON the indicator led is on.
    Two fans periodically start to turn (when they stop radiator heat - so the processor works)

    Where is the problem?

    Thank you

    You can access the BIOS when you try to start your laptop? This can give you a clue as to why the OS will not charge.

    Your hard drive is failing, fast (these things last forever). You need to replace as soon as POSSIBLE. If you have important data on what cannot be replaced I suggest you plug it into another computer as an external drive and pulling all the data you need it off.

    If you do not have the possibility to connect the drive directly on another PC, you can download a live Linux CD/USB.

    Step 1: Acquire a blank CD or USB. If you use a USB port, format it in FAT32.

    Step 2: Insert your chosen in your PC Backup media.

    Step 3: Download Unetbootin.

    Step 4: Select a distribution in the drop-down list. Just about anything will work, but for your application, I would recommend "Puppy Linux".

    Step 5: Select your media.

    Step 6: Once Unetbootin is complete, insert your media in the PC is installed on the corrupted hard drive.

    Step 7: Boot puppy. (You may need to select your Flash DRIVE or a CD in your BIOS)

    Step 8: The use of the included file manager, mount the hard drive and browse for the files you need. You can then save these on another DRIVE or a CD drive, or the internet.

  • Pavilion dv9810us: computer HP Pavilion dv9810us laptop will not start

    Reminder: a few days before my laptop does not start up, all using the laptop, the screen has become, I guess the technical term would be 'nuts': horizontal lines an inch in height, made of blocks quickly black and white, all changing left and right, and I could see my spreadsheet in the background.  Could not do something about the problem, so I rebooted and it worked fine.

    Then a few days after that, I tried to turn on my laptop, and occurred the following:

    (1) blue illuminated switch, control all the keys lit in blue (volume, skip, repeat, DVD...), fan began and heard the dvd begins to check for a disc.  This lasted for about 2 seconds.

    (2) off laptop (all lights extinguished, no fan noise or a dvd).  This lasted for about 5 seconds.

    then it would just repeat steps 1 & 2 times: start 2 seconds, stop for 5...

    Steps that my work to correct (without success):

    -J' I disconnected and removed the battery.  Let stand a few minutes.  After I have inserted the battery and reconnected, I pressed the power button.  Same 2 steps as shown above (lit for 2 seconds, turn off for 5, repetition) happened.

    -saw a post on the site of HP on a hard reset.  so I unplugged, removed the battery, which is held from the Start button / stop for 20 seconds.  then replugged (without inserting the battery) and power on.  Same 2 steps above happened (lit for 2 seconds, off for 5, repetition...).

    -J' I reset memory as someone on the HP Board has suggested:

    (1) remove the two memory, then replace both in the correct order.

    Result: same problem (2 seconds 5 seconds, repeat...)

    (2) remove the top memory (1 GB), bottom (2 GB) by leaving in place.

    Result: same problem...

    (3) place 1 GB memory on the bottom, nothing over the top.

    Result: same problem...

    From the above information, no idea what the source of the problem is, and how to fix it?

    It would be to remove the motherboard and "re-invest" the video chip with a heat gun. Configure you with a shield from sheet aluminium with the chip pushing through like dessert in a TV dinner. There are many tutorials online, but like anything else go you better the more you do and the first time is risky. Repair shops using a better process called "reballing", which is basically rebuild the chip and requires hardware, that no individual can afford to have.

    Access to the old hard drive is easy. Physically, remove it from the machine.

    https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=B3tAGVzCS7w

    See 02:20 in. You must remove the plastic adapter for in standard SATA ports. You can leave it in the basket after removing the plastic adapter bar. Then use a usb to SATA adapter and you can plug the old drive on USB ports on your computer again, and it will appear as a USB key where you can copy and paste things out of it to the new PC.

    Hello

    If you do not, use another PC to create a Windows 7 repair CD.  Download the ISO from the link below.

    Windows 7 64 bit

    You must use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO to a CD ( Note: you can deselect additional software during installation of ImgBurn options)- hereis a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc.

    One time created, or if you already have this, typing away at the esc key when you launch Notepad to open the Start Menu.  Insert the CD to repair.  Select boot options ( f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.  You can also get a prompt to "Press any key to" continuous - it if requested.

    When loading, select repair your computer and choose the command line.  When this charge, enter the following commands and press on enter after everyone – including spaces as shown.

    I have I have the laptop currently in safe mode hoping that would allow me to restore the system, but it has not, please someone can he help because it is a work laptop and I need to use it this weekend

    Thank you, Josh

    Hello

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

    According to the description of the problem you are facing problems with your Windows 7 computer. The question might be if there is a file system corruption. Then I suggest you to perform auto repair. For the execution of the task, I suggest you to try the steps below and see if it helps.

    Method 1:

    When you use the recovery environment (Windows RE) to troubleshoot startup issues, first try the Startup Repair option in the System Recovery Options dialog box. If this does not resolve the problem, or if you have additional problems manually, use the Bootrec.exe tool.

    Because you cannot start the computer, you may need to create a bootable Windows installation media, and then do an auto repair.

    If you are using Windows 7 then the link provided below might help you to download and create installation media.

    Download Windows 7 Disk Images (ISO files)

    Method 2

    Try to rebuild the BCD by using the Bootrec.exe tool.

    To run the Bootrec.exe tool, you must start Windows RE. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Place the Windows 7 installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.

    2. Press a key when you are prompted. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.

    3. Click repair your computer.

    4. Click the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.

    5. In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.

    6. Type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER.

    See the following link for more information:

    How to use the Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows recovery environment to troubleshoot and repair startup issues in Windows

    Hope this information helps.

  • Laptop does not start > how to delete data

    Separated from this thread.

    How can you get your data off when the laptop does not start again? "catch fire or explode"... in a suitcase on a train or plane? This sounds like a product ready for the market yet? More I explore this question of "overheating" in the line it worse it seems: my machine was like a hot plate not a laptop when it has been completely unfolded in a cool room: about right to mention briefly without getting hurt. (And my data is still inside of her, if it is not melted...)

    Well, unlike a laptop where you can remove the hard drive, these tablets are pretty well fixed and specifically your case, (it will not explode or catch fire) is to locate the device next to an air conditioner or a blowing unit to blow fresh air into the vents.

    At this point, press on and hold the volume button upwards and at the same time, press and hold the power button for about 15 seconds, then release it.

    If you can get it to feed and at least screen troubleshooting, see if you can get the machine to run in safe mode.

    If you can get to the desktop, you can down all your data by opening the file manager, click on 'This computer' and open the 'users' folder, go to your account name folder and copy all the files on a USB key.

    It is the only way to get your data out of these tablets.  You can't have the SSD card to remove it to try to force the machine to run at least once.

    Now, I think that your machine is still active, just overheating.  Get off in any case data.

    A RESET and reinstall updates are the only thing you can do.  I have the i3 model myself and am on it now and no problems with it.  Some games will heat, but never to the point that everyone is a report.

    If all fails, send the replacement machine.
