Good day all. I need to fix the charging port of my PC, HP Pavilion 15 (a digital pic of it is attached), that I mistakenly spoiled (it fell from the bed while the charger was still plugged). Anytime I plug the charger in the port, there's a slight spark sound in the port and it doesn't charge. How much is it likely to cost.
In case I want to change it's battery (inbuilt) too, how much is that going to cost too. Thank you.

Hello House.


Please I've not used my HP folio for over a week. The folio was working smoothly on the last use. However, I tried powering it up 2 days ago, noticed the keyboard backlight keeps blinking. The screen doesn't come on. The keyboard light will keep blinking for over 30 mins till the fan will just start blowing noisily. What could be the issue? How do I fix it?


Some weeks ago Before this happened, it will suddenly go off and show blue screen diagnostics. But whenever I remove and reinstall the battery, it works just fine.



Update: I swapped the ram sticks. It powers on without keyboard light blinking. However, the screen doesn't come on. The capslock key blinks twice, and the fan starts blowing very noisily.

In my opinion:

You need to troubleshoot the memory to be sure the motherboard is compatible with the two memory sticks.

It is likely the system can no longer carry both at the same time or one is weak and gradually failing so you need to identify the defective one.

However, kindly remove the battery followed by both RAM sticks. Clean the memory slots and RAM teeth. Insert only one RAM and plug the system to power without the battery. Switch ON the laptop. If it does not display manufacturer logo, try the other RAM.

If it works, shutdown and insert the battery.

Do not insert both the memory for now rather you should replace same with a higher GB than using 2 two sticks.

For instance use one 8GB than x2 4GB or 16GB than x2 8GB

I am unable to view the files in my external hard disk. When I plug it to my laptop, it takes forever to load, before it eventually displays a pop up message which contains the below:

"You need to format the disk in drive : D before you can use it..."

Been trying to upload a screenshot but unable to.
It has been working fine since, before this issue started recently.

What do I do at this point? I can't afford to lose the contents pleaseeeeee cry cry

Plug the external hard drive in another laptop to see if you can access the contents. If it fail to open in another laptop you need a hard disk repair tool or recovery software.

Revert back for further directives after trying the above.

Hi boss,

Sorry for the late reply. I tried plugging it in another laptop, but still status quo. It didn't detect it at all, although the blue light indicator of the drive was blinking as usual, so the cable is working fine and the issue is indeed from the drive itself.

Go to Manage to see a list of disks on the system. There you will find the status of the external drive if it requires initialization or format. Ensure the external drive is plugged while you go to manage.

The basic apps like Adobe Acrobat Reader, VCL Player, Chrome etc are free with less setup file size while MS Office is paid but other versions setup file size is in GB.

Kindly specify your location to know tech guys on this Forum within your area who can assist with the installation.

Most apps are stored in backup SSD or Flash or buy the latest mega software use a system that have a CD drive copy and paste all the apps in the software to a backup drive then install them from there.

I want to express my profound gratitude to Udemzyudex, for his kind assistance, despite being choked up with work, and I can truly affirm that he is a technician's technician. Despite doing his best regardingmy ZBOOK complaint, he went as far as flashing the BIOS chip and when it seems like the problem persisted, he sadly told me that we were out of options. Now to the good news, having seen him at CV, Ikeja on Friday, my mind was restlessand by Saturday, I had this prodding to boot the system. When I did, it still showed same glitchy screen as usual
which had also shown after the BIOS flashing. After few seconds, I just intuitively pressed the "enter" key, and to my surprise, the screen went dark, then lit up albeit blank. After a while, I saw the dotted circle, followed by the "please wait"... Next thing I saw was the login screen and pronto, I logged in. Now with his guidance, I was able to switch the hard drive to another system where I installed windows 11pro. The initial OS was windows 10pro. After swapping back the HDD to the HP, I saw the HP logo briefly on the boot screen. Mind you, the screen on booting no longer showed anything like esc or f2 options to get into BIOS or boot options. Even now I have done a clean install, the screen went glitchy briefly on restart before finishing the boot sequence properly. I will keep you guys updated as soon as I am done with the windows update processes online. Special thanks to Fixitng, who gave me potential troubleshooting directions as early as 6am on Thursday too.

Advice Needed ✋
I have had my current laptopfor 5 months When it suddenly spoiled.
I've been quoted N70k to repair it. That is to change the motherboard.
I bought the laptop for just under N160k. Its nothing fancy, a HP elitebook folio. The battery lasts, and i had no problem with it.

Im wondering if i should spend N70k to replace this laptop motherboard... or I can spend a bit more on a new laptop. I have N170k on budget
