pavilion dv6 blank screen caps lock light on blinking F11 F12 light on (red)

Hello kiranreddy,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
It appears that your Notebook is not starting, that you have a blank screen and flashing LED's. I will try to help you with this.
I would like you to start with this document: Computer Does Not Start and the LEDs Blink or the Computer Beeps. This will help to try to identify if the Notebook is providing an error code. If it is, it will also provide steps to attempt to resolve the issue.
Please let me know how you make out with this. If you require further assistance with this please provide the Model and Product numbers for your Notebook. (How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?)
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

  • HP Pavilion DV6 blank screen caps lock flashing continuously

    My laptop was working fine last night, this morning the screen stays blank, caps lock flashes once every 3 seconds or so continuously, the wireless light is solid amber, no other lights are on. I've tried a hard reset to no avail.
    When I power it on it sounds like the fan spins up and it tries to boot, then 2 seconds later it is quiet and nothing happens, if I close the lid without powering off the outside light on the top of the case stays on so it is not shutting down or in sleep mode when the case is closed.
    I've looked at a bunch of troubleshooting and none of the info seems to match this, any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    a single CAPS flash is a CPU failure, you can try following the below steps but it will most likely need to go in for repair
    power drain;-
    -remove battery and power cable
    -hold power button for 20 seconds
    BIOS recovery;-
    -hold windows+B
    -turn computer on keeping those keys held down
    if the light is still flashing at this point you'll need to contact HP, if it is in warranty then the repair should be free, if not there will be a cost

    Hello SuperMario1,
    Thanks for your response.
    The last thing i did, remove CMOS battery and after a few minutes i plugged it.
    Then connect AC power adapter and press power button.
    Laptop starts but gives a error message
    "The CMOS checksum is invalid, The BIOS will be reset to the default configuration and will be rebooted."
    Finally laptop start normally. It works fine ...
    But same problem when i restart
    "blank screen caps lock blink 2 times every 3/4 sec"
    So finally
    1. remove CMOS battery and after a few minutes i plugged it again
    2. connect AC power adapter and press power button

  • HP Pavilion DV3 ( Scroll & Caps Lock LED's blinking four times + Blank Screen )

    Hi,
    I have an HP Pavilion DV3-2157cl
    When I press the power button, the screen remains blank. Also, the scroll & the Caps Lock buttons keep blinking four times.
    Sometimes, the laptop works like nothing's wrong but Most of the time, it remains blank with the blinking lights!
    Can anyone help me?

    i had a problem with my dv3 (blank screen keeps flashing) and used this method to reflow the graphics card/chip (see link below).  only try this method if you are at your wits end... and you are skilled with taking apart/putting together electronics.  it will take you a minimum of 1 hour (but most likely, about 2).  you will need a heat gun (about $10 - $20).
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SziIr34Md0g
    to prevent it from continually over heating, you can try the penny mod (google it).  that's what i did.  you basically take a penny and sand off both sides until it is the right thickness and solder it onto the heatsink.  you'll need to remove the sticky blue foam that HP used instead.
    i also noticed that a laptop cooler placed under your laptop works well for keeping it cool.  it can be fixed again and again using the method above but it is time consuming.  to prevent getting a cold connection which leads to this problem, don't move the laptop.  yes, it sucks that you can't move it but that's the only option you have.

  • Pavilion DV6, Black Screen and 3 Caps Lock Blink

    HI,
    I have an Hp Pavilion DV6 and I am getting the 3 blinks on the caps lock. When I turn on the PC it starts up, the caps lock blinks 3 times and the screen is just black. I have already tested the memory sticks, drain the battery, and hooking it up to an external monitor.  Nothing shows on the other monitor and it just remains black. Please help!

    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.
    Troubleshooting Black Screen Displays with No Error Messages During Startup or Boot
    Here are some other sources I found that may be helpful to you.

    My pavilion dv4-1070 got stuck on a blank screen and numlock and caps lock LED are blinking... it happens when i update the BIOS.. please help... thanks

    Hello, 
    I see that you're having an issue with the notebook giving you a black screen. I also noticed you said only the NumLock and Caps lock is blinking. 
    Now, the BIOS update could have because this but we won't know until you let me know how many times the LED blinks. 
    Here is a chart which will tell us what's causing the issue. 
    Please let me know the outcome.

  • ****PLEASE HELP ME SOMEONE**** PLEASE - Re: ON SCREEN CAPS LOCK INDICATOR

    can someone please help me before i pull all of my hair out.
    i have windows vista - 64 bit - the HP IQ500 touchsmart with a wireless keyboard.
    in the systray the num caps and scroll lock appears as little blue boxes (when on).
    everynow and again they simply disapper.
    i researced how to activate them again but cant remember how to do it.
    there is a way without having to mess with the registry and without downloading any program
    i just cant remember how. i know wherever it is...you ultimately get 3 boxes that you can check in order to turn the options back on.
    i am not talking about toggling, or sound, or mscofig and then boot.
    does anyone know the steps to turn the caps scroll and num lock indicator in teh sys tray back on
    oh, and right clicking on the toolbar and going to the notificiation area is not what i am referring to either.
    I checked in the control panel programs and the hp on screen caps lock indicator etc program is there.
    I reinstalled it nonetheless and confirmed it is installed properly
    When I right click on the notification area I do to properties/notification area/customize
    There are two lists there
    1. Current Items and
    2. Past Items
    For some reason I see caps lock - scroll lock and num lock under the past items
    There you are also able to change the status of the items to either Hide wne active, hide or show
    All three (caps/num/scroll) are SHOW
    I click apply OK then apply
    I restart the computer and nothing. The on screen caps lock indicator is still not in the notification area/systray area
    I repeat teh steps to ensure that the three have the SHOW option chosen and they are.
    So....
    Program is installed
    Items are check for SHOW
    Restart was done
    Ohhh and also...I went to MSCONFIG and made sure that the HP Keyboard Program was selected/check mark as one of the start up programs.
    There in a run command to activiate the 3rd party program (hp onscreen indicator program)
    When you enter the run command that I cant remember...you then get this option where there are three check boxes...one next to num lock - one next to caps lock and one for scroll lock.
    Once you check/select the boxes/options you want...presto they appear in the sys tray/notification area.
    I just cant remember the run command it to save my life.
    Please....put my mind to ease...cause I am losing it!
    I just cant seem to "walk away"...must be my OCD :-(
    Thanks

  • Hp G62-a70SV Black Screen, Caps lock not blinking

    Hello,
    My hp G62-a70SV gives me a black screen when I push the power button.
    Caps lock isn't blinking at all, wifi led is on.
    Nothing is ever displayed on screen. I hear eventually the windows starting, but nothing more.
    I connect external monitor, but there is no signal.
    Is it problem of the display adapter on the system board?

    Hi,
    It's always worth trying a Hard Reset as follows.
    Shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery, plug in the AC Adapter and see if the notebook will start.

  • Y2P dim screen, caps lock indicator stuck on. Already disabled adaptive brighness... Warranty?

    Hi guys. Recently bought my second Y2P, this one second hand.
    Reason being my previous one was the 4GB i5 model, this one is the 8GB i7
    Now I've noticed a few things when I compare them. Firstly, and most annoyingly, the screen on this one is significantly dimmer than on my previous one. When I put it it max brightness it's only a little brighter than half way on my older one. When I put the brightness all the way down the screen turns off...
    I''ve already disabled auto dim in the battery settings, windows setting AND intel graphics control panel so I'm sure it's not down to that. I'm running the updated BIOS on both the systems also. This is unbelievably frustrating.
    Another annoying thing is that the CAPS lock indicator light is always on. Apart from when I press a button, it turns off whilst anything is being pressed (on the keyboard). It does this as soon as the machine is switched on.
    BIOS setting have been reverted to standard etc and nothing seems to be fixing any of it. I have also done a full reset of the machine on numerous occasions. Nothing.
    One last niggle is that I've noticed that the touchpad is ever so slightly sunk in (something that I probably only noticed because I have another yoga to compare it to) and there is some play in the touchpad which I would have noticed this regardless.
    Is it time to contact Lenovo warranty team? 
    Sorry for the long post, and I'd really appreciate any advice!

    Just to keep the thread updated in case by any chance someone has similar problems...
    I've contacted Lenovo who are saying it's likely a motherboard issue, I'll be getting a letter with details of how to arrange a courier to collect the system within the next few days. I'll let y'all know what comes of it!

  • Black screen caps lock key blinks

    Laptop screen is blank and the caps lock key blinks 3 times over and over..Tried doing what was suggested, taking out and reinstalling the memory card..also blew out the dust and didn't fix the problem ..I think it's Windows 7 installed.

    Hi there @Philvasquez 
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel.
    I am sorry to here that you are getting this particular error code and that your initial troubleshooting has not helped.
    I assume that you were looking through this page, and followed it.
    Computer does not start and the LEDs blink or the computer beeps
    LEDs blink 3 times
    Memory
    Module error not functional
    If you have followed the process within that page, related to a memory problem, and it is still doing the same thing, then you are looking at two possibilities. One or more of the memory modules in your notebook is defective, or the main board has a faulty connection.
    You can try testing the memory individually or by swapping them (if there  are two) into the different memory sockets. Doing this you can isolate if one memory chip or the other is defective, or if it is a socket problem.
    Once you know which problem it is , you will likely need to get replacement memory, or a replacement board, or in a worst case both.
    See the following, for more details on the compatible parts and type of memory that are supported.
