I almost am sure this is a hardware issue, however I don't know if this forum (superuser) is the best forum to ask (if not; please say which one, than I remove the question and create a new one).
I have a HP Probook 6560b and the power led blinks white/amber. Also it does not start up.
What I tried:
- Replace battery pack
- Replace power
Neither does work.
Also in the manual I cannot find what it means, does anybody know what can be the cause and/or how to fix this?
1Try taking out the battery, unplugging and holding down the power button for 15 seconds. You may also try holding power+mute together – harrymc – 2019-02-01T10:21:19.100

@Moab I tried but no difference. – Michel Keijzers – 2019-02-03T12:40:47.500
1A bad power brick can cause this also. – Moab – 2019-02-03T13:40:05.670
@Moab I replaced the power adapter, but if you mean the internal power brick, that's hard to replace probably. – Michel Keijzers – 2019-02-03T13:45:44.113
1OK, then it must be an internal problem with the motherboard. – Moab – 2019-02-03T13:46:29.460
I'm afraid so, but it's too old to spend money on a new motherboard probably. – Michel Keijzers – 2019-02-03T14:06:59.530
