    HP Laptop not starting


    I have an HP 6475B. It was working fine until recently. Now when I switch on, I get the Windows logo and a message that it's repairing - then gets nowhere. I have a USB to reinstall Windows 10 but it isn't much good until the machine has loaded. Any advice would be appreciated. Windows 10 Home installed

    :)

    My hp laptop wont turn on

    This is a frequent problem am sure as you have already seen from online searches.

    Flea power is usually the culprit here, basically its residual power that remains on the computer even after thecomputer has been shutdown. You can drain the flea power with the steps the other answers have suggested.

    • Disconnecting the battery and adapter
    • Press the hardpress the power button for 30 seconds
    • This should clear the flea power

    If this doesnt work, read this article its about
    a dell inspiron
    but the same applies for you hp. It has some detailed step by step instructions

    Hp laptop screen won’t display except occasionally

    - this suggests BIOS corruption or a hardware problem...
    Whilst you might try flashing the BIOS (updating it may be necessary to run Win 10- witness your problem above), you also say you have access to it.
    Do you hear any beeps or sounds?

    Try steps 1,2 here:
    Laptop freezes at HP logo without loading circle - HP Support Forum - 5997641

    Check the version of your BIOS vs that listed on HP's site for your laptop.

    I'm also wondering if this might be related to your CMOS battery inside your laptop. (This should be a normal circular battery).
    How to replace the CMOS battery
    - but that's just a thought.

    Worth asking on the HP forum.

    ================================
    Sorry that's not how to create a bootable disk. All that disk is is data storage- as you just copied the files to it.

    Please see:
    How to Create a Bootable DOS USB Drive
    for one way to do it using a free program.

    However, given the above, doing that isn't likely to help you I'm afraid.

    Windows 10 Hibernate issue with the HP laptop

    Hi,

    Sorry for the delay in response.

    We would suggest you to runt the Power troubleshooter and check.

    Try to run the troubleshooter and check.

    • Type Troubleshooting in the search box and hit
      Enter.
    • Select View all from the left pane and select Power.
    • Follow the on-screen troubleshooter and try the steps.
    We would also suggest you to update the firmware of the BIOS and install the chipset drivers and check.

    For steps related to updating firmware for the BIOS and chipset drivers, you may contact the HP.

    My windows 10 laptop started hibernating on it’s own: I managed to stop it from hibernating; now it shuts down immediately after login or even when I don’t login. It’s so fast I can’t even get a window open to troubleshoot. At least when it hibernated I can get a couple things done before it shuts off again....
