    HP Probook 4540s: Flashng Charging Light

    Hi all

    Got here a flashing charging light when ever the charger is plugged in. It first started as a blinking (not flashing) orange light. I reflashed bios and now the flashing white light. Damaged bios chip/file?

      How old is your Probook? That model is fairly new within 1 year. Was your laptop still under warranty????

              Go to hp.com. Go to support and enter in the serial number of the laptop.
              Usually these laptops come with a 3 yr warranty.

                  HP Elitebook 845 G8 dead, only caps lock flashing 7 times. Charging light always on
                  by esqmooo
                  Hello everyone.

                  This is my development machine. I've been using it since two years and half without any problem except sometimes it wouldn't wake up from sleep.
                  Lately the issue became more frequent and powering it up would take few seconds to show the POST screen.
                  Then the computer refuses to power on at all. Now only the caps lock button flashes 7 times then stops. The charging light is always on whenever a power source is connected (battery or charger).
                  I tried long pressing on the power button, after several seconds it would go off then when the button is released...

                  HP PROBOOK 450 G1 - LED flashing on the charging connector
                  by GabrielT_03
                  Please, someone who can help me with a PROBOOK 450 G1. When I connect the charger or power supply, the power jack LED starts blinking. The board has the main voltages: 19V, 3V, 5V, and 3V, and the power button.
                  The board turns on.
                  This is the board model: Rampage_MB 12241-1

                  Strange! Acer laptop not powering on but charging the battery (orange light on when charger and battery plugged in).
                  by serious_electron
                  Hello Everyone!

                  I have an Acer Aspire A315-42 laptop. I generally leave it on for long time by closing down its lid (so it enters the sleep mode). Recently, it rained quite heavily in out area. And the humidity and moisture seem to be high. So one late evening, after I opened the lid and turned on the laptop, it did power on as the blue light turned on but after it booted to the desktop screen, just 5-10 seconds after both the screen and blue light went out and laptop shut down (the blue power light turned orange). And after 2-4 seconds that orange light went off and the laptop died.                  ...

                  HP Elitebook 850 G8 CAPS lock flashes 7 times and charging light always on
                  by esqmooo
                  Hi,
                  I'm facing this issue since this morning. When I try to power it on, the CAPS lock light flashes 7 times (or 6 if not counting the first one when the power button is pressed). The charging light is always on as if the laptop was connected to the charger. The issues started gradually where it would flash the light but after trying multiple time it would power on. I tried to open it and I noticed one coil "1R0 2127" gets hot when the charger is connected. Note: the charging light directly comes on when the battery is connected or the charger is connected.
