By the sound of it you have a BIOS problem. This can happen with a bad flash of the bios HP automatically updates the system if you have not shut off that feature. You may have recieved a bad update. It may also be youre power supply. Check to see if your power supply has the full voltage if you have a Voltmeter. Try reflashing the Bios if you can and make sure to check the "clear nv ram" feature if available during the flash process.
Hope this helps... Dale

if you had said that, then Id have said

since its 1 decade old
the RTC coin cell is bad.
so is the main huge battery, run the PC with no battery here 1st
then if it still fails a new coin cell
if still dead, running on the power pack AC
power on and do a F11 recovery power on, hammer f11
if the HDD is still good, F11 will work and you go back to day one
state. (all data lost and all added apps lost)
are you backuped.

in recovery,(posted 1million times at HP) we do startup file repair before the full recovery, and hope.

i run HDD tests but Im not covering that here, done so 100 times here.
.

that means your laptop has no power so your battery is dead which would explain why it shut down on you, and that means its not charging so it would either be the adapter or the port on your laptop

sounds like hard drive gas failed

i have compaq c700 notebook and i want sound driver for windows xp

I assume your just bought your laptop recently. If this is the case, the finger scanning application could be not yet install on your new laptop. Check in one of the CD's included on your laptop package if the installer for Finger Scanning is there and have it installed.

Costs around £450 in UK

This is a possible problem with the inverter that powers the back lighting panel or it could be the power adapter connector on the latop.
Wriggle the power connector which plugs into the laptop, if the LCD screen flickers then the power connector is faulty or needs resolderng (repairing).
