HP Envy x360 Won’t Turn On – Fan Error Message Before Shutdown

 

Hi everyone,

I’m having trouble with my HP Envy x360 and could use some guidance before spending money on repairs. Here’s what happened:

My laptop won’t turn on at all now.

When I plug in the charger, the indicator light turns solid white, then blinks slowly for about a minute, then turns solid orange (or red, not sure).

I removed the battery for two full days and tried every reset method I could find online, including:

Holding the power button for 30+ seconds.

Pressing Windows + B, Windows + V, F11, ESC repeatedly, etc.

Trying to power on with just the charger (no battery) – the light comes on solid white, but still nothing else happens.


I believe I heard a faint electrical hum, but no fan movement or screen activity.

I opened it up and found a small dust ball in one of the fans, which I removed.

Most importantly: Before this happened, I got a fan error message saying one of my fans wasn’t working properly. I bypassed it by pressing Enter because I had to submit college work ASAP. I had it on a 3-fan cooling stand at the time, so I figured it would be fine.

I walked away for a few minutes, came back, and it was completely off—and I haven't been able to turn it back on since.


My Concerns:

Could the laptop be in some kind of lockout mode due to the fan failure, preventing startup until the issue is fixed?

Is there a way to confirm if it's just the fans and not a bigger problem before I spend money replacing them?

Could the overheating have fried something important? I doubt it, but I want to be sure.

I’m a college student on a budget, so I want to avoid unnecessary spending or taking it to a repair shop if I can fix it myself.


I’d really appreciate any advice on what to check next. Thanks in advance!
