Power button blinking

Someone PLEASE help I'm panicking! I have an HP stream notebook, it's a touchscreen and I know it's windows 8 (the model is 13-c002dx). So I had it on and it was working fine. I closed it, went downstairs, came back up, and when I opened it the screen didn't turn on. The power button is just blinking. I pressed it, the keyboard, plugged it in, everything. The screen's just not turning on and the light won't stop blinking. What do I do? I don't think I can take out the battery and I don't want to tell my parents because they'll think I did something to it. Do I just wait for it to die or something?

Hi @Dahlia24 ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. Thanks for all the information about what is happening to your system. I have looked into your HP Stream 13-c002dx Notebook and getting a flashing power button on startup. Try performing a hard reset.
When performing a hard reset please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices.
You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook.
I hope this helps.
Thanks.

Power button blink twice each time, video included. Laptop won't turn on. help please!

Hi guys,I opened up my laptop - HP Pavilion dv6 because the fan was full with dust.I cleaned it up and followed the youtube instructions. I know I assembled the laptop correctly, each part in his place, every step went smoothly.When i tried to power up the laptop, it didnt turn on. At the beginning i had 2 blinks in the power button with the f12, i did a hard reset and now i got just 2 blinks on power button. here is the video i took, please help me!!!http://youtu.be/JjRhWZw4W8Ithanks!

Rebuild the unit from scratch..... There may be a shorting part

Why Power Button blinks after overnight ShutDown. Restarts Shuts Down?

Funny enough, My APC shorted out from another piece of equipment that went bad. Blew my room circuit breaker as APC smoke arose. Learned lesson, 'Dedicate your APC to your Computer(s) only! Testing showed I fried my Mother board! I bought and replaced the exact Motherboard version. Ran the 'Hardware Disk' all systems nominal, reset fan speeds. Hooray! Back in business!... 10 days later, I shut the Computer down. The next morning, the Power Button was blinking erratically. Not showing normal codes! Able to start up- fans, sys, monitors fine. Then, 'click', power supply shut off. Did the usual unplug power and peripheries, pmu, batt.. Time enough to run Hardware disk to know CPU, memory, drives,fans ok... Shut Down! BEFORE I GO TO REPLACE THE POWER SUPPLY, Are their any other thing I can check, i.e. Power Management, suspect Connectors, Power Button?? ANY IDEAS? PLEASE HELP! An Intel Mac Pro will be next but the changes and upgrades will put my Studio in Gremlin ****! THANK YOU!

> think this is normal. Any vaguely recent think this is normal. Any vaguely recent ...
Sorry - this is not normal...let me clarify....when I click 'Start' -> Shutdown -> select 'Shutdown' or 'Hibernate' from the drop down list, and press enter... It does shutdown or hibernate as appropriate, BUT IT ALMOST IMMEDIATELY STARTS BACK UP. This is not normal behavior. When you shutdown, it should indeed power off and stay off, until you press the power button again. That is normal.
The last physical contact with the computer is pressing enter on the "Shut Down Windows" window...I do not close the lid, move a mouse, or anything else...I merely watch it shut down or hibernate, and start right back up...
Please note, I have attempted to search for a solution, but I don't know the 'specific' terms to look for...as shut down or hibernate doesn't fail, it succeeds, it just 'turns back on' or 'boots back up' as if a ghost pressed the power button to turn it back on....
My advanced power settings are set to:
When I close the lid - do nothing
When I press the power button - hibernate
When I press the sleep button - sleep (I never use sleep)
I am sure the power button itself is not malfunctioning, because when I press the power button in Win XP, it indeed Hibernates, (before starting back up) If I 'shut it off during POST' and press the power button, it comes on as normal.
Any other guesses?

My Power Mac G4 booted from an OS 9.1 install CD, and then froze up. Now I turn the machine on, beeps 3 times, power button blinks 3 times. What does this mean?

I tried to install Mac OS 9.1. I turned the computer on, heard the bong noise (although with some static), and inserted the OS 9.1 installation CD. It started to boot, but froze up. I rebooted the machine, and the same thing happened. One more reboot, and i get 3 beeps and the power button is blinking. What does this mean?

Hi, it indicates a RAM problem, (or Logic Board around the RAM).
The power on self-test resides in the ROM of the computer. This test runs whenever the computer is turned on after being fully shut down (the power-on self-test does not run if the computer is only restarted).
If a fault is detected during the test, you will not hear a normal startup chime. Instead, the system will beep as explained below. If you experience one of these beeps, you may call your Apple Authorized Service Provider for additional troubleshooting assistance.
1 beep = no RAM installed
2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
3 beeps = no good banks
4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
5 beeps = processor is not usable
In addition to the beeps, on some computers the power LED will flash a corresponding number of times plus one. The LED will repeat the sequence after approximately a 5-second pause. The tones are only played once.
Note: In this case, a flash is considered to be 1/4 second or 250 ms or greater in length.

P67A-GD55 Won't Power On - Onboard Power Button Blinks

I just built my Core i7 system with the P67A-GD55 motherboard and I'm having a problem. I've got all my components installed and when I plug my power cord into my power supply the system won't turn on. The power button on the motherboard repeatedly blinks green, but doesn't do anything. My case power button won't do anything at all either. I've read through the manual and searched through the forums and haven't been able to find an answer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Mobo: MSI P67A-GD55
CPU: Intel Core i7-2600 3.4GHz
RAM: Patriot Gamer 2 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3-1600
HDD1: Crucial M4 64GB connected to SATA1
HDD2: Seagate 7200.11 500GB connected to SATA2
PSU: Silverstone ST60F 600W
Video: ATI Radeon 4670 1GB

PSU has 42 +12V amps on the single rail, so that shouldn't be a problem. Could you please check the green sticker on the BIOS chip to see which version the board was shipped with? Guessing 1.8 or 1.9? I have a feeling it is a RAM compatibility issue. The very newest BIOS's have improved support for both G.Skill & Patriot memory modules, but you have to get into the BIOS initially to set the RAM up manually to possibly get to the point of loading the OS for the BIOS update. To rule out a possible bad stick of RAM, try to start with each of them singularly in the first blue slot, & just one HDD, & with VGA installed.

Powermac g4 cube, power button blinks twice

hello,
i have a powermac g4 cube, i plugged it in and it turned on (i could here it) and i went to go turn on the apple display and i pressed the button as normal, and when i pressed it, it lites up and when i let go the light goes out. it is a yellow light on the display. so i grabbed a differnt display that i had laying around and plugged that in and it went right into standby mode, i then looked at the mac and saw that it was blinking twice. i went online and read the it was a incompatible ram issue, first off, i just took out the ram and that would show a 1 blink, and second, would no ram cause the display issue? i just want to know if it is the graphics card or if im just not doing somthing correctly. one other thing, i opened it up and noticed that it was missing a few screws and it was wiggley, so i replaced the missing screws and it made it secure, but this still did not resolve the issue.
thanks

would no ram cause the display issue?
Yes. No RAM, bad RAM, incompatible RAM are all contrary to function.
If you don't have compatible RAM, the machine will not move to logic. If there is no logic function, the machine will not move to graphics initiation.
One must reach successful logic before one can have graphics.
Deal with the RAM issue first.
Install known good, guaranteed Mac compatible RAM.
Standard PC RAM almost never works.

17in CRT Studio Display (Blue & White)-blinking power button

I have an Apple 17in Studio Display (CRT-Blue and White vintage) connected to my Power Mac G5.
Last night, I went home, and turned it on..or rather tried to turn it on but found it stayed black, with the power button blinking green->amber->green->amber etc.
As far as the computer was concerned, the monitor was still there and working (dual monitors...the mac kept the b&w as if it was turned on).
I swapped the monitors to the different video ports and the other monitor worked fine, so it's not the video card or vga->digital adapters.
I unplugged the monitor and replugged it, and it stayed with the blinking light.
Restarting the computer with the monitor attached had the computer still running as if the monitor was working just fine, so it seems to be getting what ever kind of feedback the mac gets to let it know a video card is there.
Anyone have any idea what could be up?

Printer offline, no response to unplugging or pressing blinking power button

It has never had this problem before, I even downloaded the print and scan doctor and it says nothing is wrong with the printer. It just says the printer is offline, the power button blinks and has no response to when i press it. The test print page wont print, and the status jusy says error. I tried the open and close 4 times thing, and checked for paper jams. Everything is also installed.

What printer do you have? What operating system do you have? I am including a document that addresses printer offline message.

Blinking Power button on T410

Hi,
I have a T410 and just noticed today that the power button is blinking green, whenthe machine is switched on.
If i reboot it goes away for a while but then starts blinking again.
What does this mean?

Hi nuri,
just a suggestion.
The power button blinks because your system went into standby. (You mentioned that the battery is set to optimize lifespan).
To wake it up, try to press the blue FN key on your keyboard. bottom left position.
hope this helps.

Power button flashes when I try to scan HP Deskjet 2514

I first had a problem where my printer would not stop printing, even though I canceled it. I looked it up and followed these instructions. From the Desktop, hold down the Windows key and press R. Into the Run window, type services.msc and hit enter. Browse down to the print spooler service, right click it and select Properties then click on the Stop button. Now browse to C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS and delete the job inside this folder - You may need to click a prompt to gain the appropriate authority to open the PRINTERS folder. Restart the computer and you should find the document(s) have been removed. I didn't know which one to delete, so I deleted everything in the folder. Now, my printer will print, but everytime I try to scan something, my power button blinks and it won't scan. Please help!

Hi , I read your post and see that you were able to resolve the issue for the print jobs not cancelling out, but now you are unable to scan. I would be happy to help you.
Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector) This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation. Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor, it will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. This software will also troubleshoot jobs stuck in the queue, which you could use in the future if the issue occurs again. What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages) If you appreciate my efforts, please click the 'Thumbs up' button below. If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know. Thank You.

My power button goes on blinking what is the problem

my hp laptop power button goes on blinking .i removed the battery and by fiitting the adapter button nothing worked out.

Hi @faizuneesa ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a terrific place to find answers.
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I believe that when you connect the power adapter, the power light blinks.
Here is a link to Using and Testing the AC Power Adapter.
I would also check the physical notebook connection for any bent pins or damage.
Here is a link to Computer Does Not Start and the LEDs Blink or the Computer Beeps as I am unsure what light is blinking.
If this has not helped would you please provide your exact model of HP notebook , your Operating System and the results from your troubleshooting.
Also exactly where you see the blinking lights.

WRTU54G-TM Blinking Power Button

I just signed up for T-Mobile @Home service that included a Linksys WRTU54G-TM router. I got it at 10:00am this morning. After setting everything up, everything was working fine. I was able to browse the internet and check e-mail on my desktop (connected via cable). However, when I tried to connect my laptop (wireless) I couldn't connect because of incorrect security credentials. SO I unplugged the router (to just restart it) and plugged it back in. BUT now the power button in constantly blinking and I cannot ping the router or get to the router's startup page (192.168.0.1). I spent 3 hours unplugging, holding down reset button, letting it blink itself to death... Then I decided to return the router to T-Mobile and got another one. Everything worked fine - except for when I set security settings (WPA-Personal 2) my laptop saw an unsecured network. So me, in my infinite wisdom unplugged the router and ... AGAIN, Im stuck with a blinking power light and no way to ping the router or anything. Holding down reset button does NOTHING. Please help!!! -Paul

Well if the power light is blinking on the router then try resetting the router for 1 complete minute & then do a complete network power cycle & check if the light is not solid green try another power adapter if you have & check out if it works fine....if not then if its a new router replace it back to store.

Hello.
Do you have any security passwords set for your hard drives?
There was a user that reported a similar problem with his machine a couple of weeks
ago, and it turned out to be tied to the HD password he had set. When he turned the
password off, the machine booted normally.
