Pavilion Dv5-1009el - Black screen and blink caps lock and block scorr

Hi,
I just replaced the motherboard of my pavilion that reported an error as object. The purchased motherboard is new and hp original.
After having changed, I turn on the pc and work fine, i see the hp logo and enter to bios, after I turned off the pc without starting windows.
I inserted the battery and powered on the pc and returns to the old error, the LED of caps lock and block Lock blinks...
So I tried to update the bios from USB using winkey + B. The computer emits two beeps but does not read from any USB port and the LEDs go out for a while and then blink again.
What can I do?
Greetings,
Enzo.

Hi @shmurray,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand you are getting a blink pattern on the Caps lock LED, when you turn on the notebook. I am happy to help you with this.
I am including the page on the error codes for your reference: Blank Screen LED Error Codes
From that document the pattern you are getting indicates a memory problem. You said that you have tested the memory. What exactly did you try?
The document suggests reseating the RAM or trying a new set of RAM and then restarting the notebook. If you are still getting a memory problem after trying both of those things, ie a 3 blink code again, then it would likely suggest that there is a problem with the motherboard itself, either with the memory slot or one of the controllers related to memory.
In that case I would suggest contacting the technical phone support number at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.
http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-phone-assist.html
If however reseating the memory or replacing it leads to a different error code or message please let me know, Although in that case the following may be helpful if you still have a blank screen.

Here are some other sources I found that may be helpful to you.

  • Macbook Pro 13-inch (10.6.8) random white/black screens and becomes unresponsive...what is wrong/what to do to solve?

    PLEASE PLEASE READ THIS I'M IN NEED OF URGENT HELP. || Heeey everyone! I'm new here. Please don't bite me. =))
    Okay. So I have a Macbook Pro, 13 inch (bought Dec. 2010). It's currently running on Snow Leopard (10.6.8). It had a hard drive crash in Feb. 2012...I had it replaced and lost all my files . It had two major falls (January 2011 & November 2012). Oh, and it also makes this weird grinding noise when you listen closely.
    Everything was going fine, until last week, I encountered a kernel panic. Restarted, but was faced with that awkward blank white screen thing at start up. I was told at the Apple Store back when my hard drive crashed in Feb. 2012 that repeated pressing down of the power button can be damaging, so I waited for it to run out of battery to restart. After that, it was normal again. I downloaded OnyX and verified/repaired permissions...nothing was out of the ordinary.
    THEN. The next day, in the middle of use, my mac suddenly black-screened. Not a lot of windows were open, and I wasn't doing anything that...will put a strain on anything. It wasn't total pitch-black like the screen looks like when it's turned off. I could still hear the hard drive working and making that grinding sound. I pressed the caps-lock key, and it didn't light up. =))) What, is it off or something? But I can still hear the hard drive there. And it's totally unresponsive. So I decided to restart by pressing down the power button. It was normal again...until a few hours later when it suddenly white-screened. OKAY it's white now. I don't know what that's supposed to mean. But it had the same symptoms as the black-screen. Unresponsive, caps-lock didn't light up, normal grinding sound as if the computer was still on. So I let it run out of battery so I could restart. Upon restarting, I opened Disk Utility and verified disk permissions. There was no damage, nothing again.
    I recently got uTorrent (around late December), and thought that it might have been that, so I deleted it and emptied trash. The next day, it did the black screen again. Same with the next day. There's at least one per day. It didn't seem to affect performance at all, everything still ran smoothly. I made sure to check disk permissions to see if everything was okay. And everything was.
    Then, about three days passed without any black/white screen and I thought that nuisance was over. BUT NO. Two days ago, I got black-white-white screened and I was...shocked. I let it run out of battery again. =))) Checked Disk Utility, again, nothing. So I decided to get that Software Update thingo that always pops up. I upgraded to 10.6.8. A day passed without the dreaded black/white screens. But yesterday, it white screened once. And today, it white screened again.
    I really can't figure out a concrete pattern. It seems random. But what I do know is that:
    1. It happens in the afternoon. All the time, consistently in the afternoon. LOOOL IDK what this is supposed to mean, but its one of the common factors. =))
    2. Most of the time, it happens when I leave the computer for about 30 seconds - 1 minute to get something. Or if I'm watching a long video (like a TV show episode), a period of time where I don't touch the mouse/press any keys. Is that related somehow?
    3. I can't do anything to get it out of the white/black screen except restart. Each time I restart, I check Disk Utility and nothing is wrong.
    And yes, I've went to the Apple Store to get this checked. All they said is: "Upgrade to Lion, maybe the error will disappear. If it does, then it was just a software error. If it doesn't...then sorry." LOOOOOOL NOT FALLING FOR THAT, not spending money when I'm not sure it'll fix the error. I want concrete answers.
    I'm a student, and my Christmas Break will be over in less than a week. SO I NEED ALL THE HELP IN THE WORLD PLEASE. What is wrong with my laptop? Can I fix this? Will opening it in safe mode help in any way? PLEASE I'M DESPERATE.

    Try these:
    See what's loading in your login items. - delete the ones you don't need.
    Open up Activity Monitor and under all processes, see what's using most of your cpu's resources.  Highlight the ones using the most % CPU and hit quit process.
    Next, open up disk utility and verify your disk.  Once that's done, verify disk permissions - repair if needed.
    Restart your Macbook and see if it speeds things up for you.
    good luck....

    Hi,
    Check if this helps:
    Restoring the BIOS
    If it is blinking 3 times it usually indicates memory issue..So you can try reseating the memory modules or try one memory at a time in each slot..

  • Windows 7 64-bit black screen and blinking cursor for ages before boot

    Help!
    I'm having the black screen with blinking cursor whenever I try and boot up Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit thru Bootcamp on my MacBook Pro. If i let it just sit there for maybe 2 or 3 minutes, it then goes to the Windows Boot Manager screen and allows me to click on Windows 7 and the it boots perfect. I've tried installing it twice, same thing. No problem booting OS X Snow Leo 10.6.3. Got the right NVidia drivers installed, makes no difference. Have Paragon NTFS installed so I can get thru to NTFS partition from OS X. I badly need Windows too and don't wanna slow it down by running it in Parallels or VMWare Fusion. A little help?
    Thanks a lot!

    Solved! Here's what worked for me, it's located at:

  • Windows Boots to Black Screen w/Blinking white cursor, and then...

    I installed a new OCZ sata II SSD in my iMac 27' mid-2010.  I bought the cables and pressure wall from an AASP, so it's all Apple in there except for the OCZ drive. The 2TB internal drive (factory) is in there, too.
    Installed SL to the SSD and updated to 10.6.8 and man, does this machine fly now!
    So I used Boot Camp to create a windows partition, 40GB on the SSD, then went through the WIndows 7 install process.  My WIndows disc is a retail copy - totally legit.
    So the installer finishes, and I used the disc that came with the iMac to install the Boot Camp drivers (vs 3.1)
    Then Windows restarts and - fail
    Black screen with blinking white cursor.  Tried the command fixes to the MBR - no joy.
    Here is the weird thing: if I put the Windows installer in the optical drive, then boot to the Startup Disk Manager (holding down option at power up) I can select the installer dvd, and when the prompt comes up "Press any key to boot from CD/DVD" if I just leave it for a moment, the operating system boots from the SSD.
    Weird.  But, thats what I've been doing as a workaround.  That and using Fusion to reach over to the Boot Camp partition and run it as a virtual machine (which works just fine).
    Anybody know how to fix this?
    Thanks!
    Jason

    I FOUND My answer.
    I opened the iMac back up and swapped the SATA data cables so that the cable designated for the factory installed internal HD led to my self-installed SSD - now it works as it should.
    No errors on the internal HD either.
    I beleive that EFI looks for the Windows MBR to be on the 1st drive bay.  If I had modified my system by patching the MBR or EFI somehow I guess I could have got it to work, but as it is the cables reached and all is well.
    As an aside, I came to this deduction when I removed the internal HD from the iMac and tried to boot from the SSD WIN7 partition and still could not.  Then I took the same SSD out and popped it into my MBPro and it worked.  My guess was that somehow the presence of another internal HD of any kind was confusing the boot loader, but I now believe it is the drive bay designation.
    Hope this helps someone else who has added a SSD to their single drive iMac mid-2010

  • IMac boots to a black screen and shows blinking square cursor on top left

    iMac boots to black screen and then shows flashing white square in the top left of the screen. After a few seconds an error message - i assume appears.
    disc0s2 oxe0030005 undefined appears.
    Does anyone know what this is?
    Can view HDD using firewire
    Can load diagnostic disc and run diagnostics with no errors

    The disc0s2 should be your OS X boot volume. Have you tried starting from the Install DVD1? Start from the DVD and when you get to the OS X installer go to Disk Utility in the Utilities menu and select First Aid. Choose the top drive in the left hand column and repair. Repair as many times as necessary until no more repairs are reported. Quit Disk Utility. Then go to Startup Disk in the Utilities menu and choose the OS x volume on your Mac and restart.
    Let us know what happens.

  • Hp pavilion dv 7 black screen

    Hi, I have a dv 7 pavilion c670Ca, I had trouble with the motherboard when I tried to clean the fan(black screen and caps lock blink continuesiouly, no fan sound), I did replace it with a new you one but I still have the black screen with orange wifi light on, the fan is turning too and I have the light on on the behind of the screen. I tried to disconnect everything but nothing does work !
    Any suggestions ?
    Thank you

    Hi @Taqui3 , 
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook and issues with the LCD screen not showing on the display after fan replacement. if you can see the image on a monitor it is not the graphics card and could be the LCD screen or the cable.
    Have you connected the Notebook to a monitor? Here is a document on how to connect to a monitor if you need it.
    You could restore the BIOS with this document selecting the reloading the BIOS default settings which could resolve the issue with the fans.
    Here is a link to computer won't start for Windows 7.
    You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook.
    When performing a System restore please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices as they can cause issues.
    I hope something here helps you.

  • Boot Camp: Early 2011 MacBook Pro boots to black screen with blinking cursor after windows 7 installation.

    I bought and downloaded the windows 7 ultimate edition 64 bit iso, then proceeded to perform a correct burn to a DVD one at the slowest speed and one at the fastest. all went well. so I open Boot Camp assistant and follow the instructions to the letter, downloaded the driver support to the flash drive. partitioned my drive with more than enough room 150 gb. its starts its install. I get through everything seamlessly where I put in my info all with the exception of my activation code. yet it still continues to finalize the install and does another restart. boots back up to either A. black screen saying press any key to boot to my install disk. B. if I take it out just a white curser. also I read it may be because I had the flash drive in while I was trying to boot so I removed it as well, same result. any input would be much appreciated.

    Boot Camp- Windows installation boots to black screen with blinking cursor.

  • Black screen w/blinking cursor hp dv6700 please help me out someone!!

    My dv6700 running vista 32 bit has shut down on me and when i try to start it I get the first HP screen and then get stuck on a black screen with blinking cursor.....so i can't get to the next screen to press F8.....I went to this page to download iso file to make a recovery cd http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?lang=eng&DwnldID=15074 and then used IMGBURN program to burn iso to cd....then put the burned cd into my HP cd drive and started it up but still to the black screen with blinking cursor.....then got into my bios screen on the next try to change boot order to start with cd drive but same thing...black screen blinking cursor.....I really hope someone can help me out here.......I've never posted on any forum ever...always googled everything myself cause i wasn't sure if i'd actually get a response on a forum....so i'm hoping i've been wrong this hole time...... 

    Hi,
    I don't think the ISO you downloaded will provide the necessary repair options you need to try, so I'd suggest first creating a retail Vista installation disc and using the repair options this provides.  A full description of creating the disc ( including links to the Vista Image downloads ) can be found on the following link.
    http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/software-os/w/microsoft_os/3317.2-3-microsoft-windows-vi...
    Once created, tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu.  Insert the Rescue CD.  Select Boot options ( usually f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and hit enter.  You may also get a prompt to 'Press any key to continue' - do this if asked.
    When loaded, select Repair Your Computer and choose the Command Prompt.  When this loads, enter the following commands and hit enter after each one - include spaces as shown.
    Bootrec.exe
    bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup
    c:
    cd boot
    attrib bcd -s -h -r
    ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old
    bootrec /RebuildBcd
    bootrec /fixmbr
    bootrec /fixboot
    Remove the Rescue CD and try rebooting the notebook.
