Troubleshooting

Laptop does not power on

Ensure the AC adapter is securely connected to both the laptop and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet. If the issue persists, contact HP support.

Wi-Fi connection is slow or unstable

Ensure you are within range of your Wi-Fi router. Restart your router and laptop. If using Wi-Fi 7, confirm your router supports it and that drivers are up to date. Consider updating to the latest Wi-Fi drivers from HP's website.

Poor performance during multitasking

Close unnecessary applications running in the background. Check Task Manager for resource-intensive processes. Consider upgrading RAM if you frequently exceed 16 GB usage.

Screen display issues (flickering, lines)

Ensure the display drivers are up to date. Check for physical damage to the screen or hinges. If using an external monitor via USB-C, test the connection with a different cable or port.

Keyboard or touchpad not responding

Restart the laptop. Check if any keys are stuck. Ensure no external devices are interfering. If the problem continues, try updating or reinstalling the relevant drivers from the HP support website.
