If your laptop appears to boot up and the hard disk LEDflashes, then the problem is probably a back light fault. This can be a faultyinverter or a faulty CCFL lamp.

ebay oftern have sellers of manuals for discount prices 99p or 50 cents to about £5 or $2, if my calculations are correct, i will have a look around on the net and then give you the link to it.

Don't need THE boot disks.
A system disk from any OS will do.
Insert disk before power on.
It should tell you whether it is compatible.
If so it will load its own drivers.
and if not it may tell you what OS is on there.
ps. OS = operating system

no pc told, Pavilion means zerothat name is is used on desktops and laptops for agesthe HP has diagnostics so run those. HP.com tells how.not told desktop or laptops. just 1 word."Screen"first Pavilion was 1995

HP.COM << go there. And ask a real question ,you did not.

learn to google mate. this is no secret,gee millions sold. A6Y530A the partsurfer shows true model, and fails this is the only post here ever asking for reverse code lookups on models fake, and is not easy in vast cases I guess you have no such PC, (look like) so why ask this>? what prompted this quest>? not told why not ask seller for photos of it if this is a pre sales question , is it>? google and bing and HP all show that model # is BOGUS so go back to your sell and ask the we can not guess PCs ever. HP product ID# is best on the service tag for SURE. where did you see this number, not told. or that number is some 20+ year old COMPAQ PC ,lost in the sands of time, and no google hits. you posted to HP forum, (not real) Hp.com is real

what does not working mean (KBD) dead, or 1 key bad or row. what? symptoms matter most, for sure in a LAPTOP IS IT the word Pavilion is on laptops and desktop, dig? G mean zero , the service tag does not just say "G" sorry. easy peasy lemon squeezy HP.com complex URL no? go there tell them your model # or better the service tag code ! . then magically HP puts you on YOUR service support page and all manuals and all driver before your eyes. amazing no? NO told at all or of a laptop or desktop or what./? you posted ANON so I can't just read other posts by you to learn what PC this is , no I can not. there are over 100 PC called G series, and vast years. some PCs by them G1 to 7 are generations, like HP Pavilion g6-1029tx Notebook. if you can find the service tag the product ID # is what matters most this code includes (real model, version , options and country sold) see this, older PCs by them had this. see that , all matters but do not post SN/ or service codes in public. mine: procuct code (nnnnnnABA#) https://www.pcdied.com/TAG-jive/tag-elite8540w.JPG I will guess it is 17" laptop, here is the mess just that 1 sized once you see this you know that G series means not MUCH> https://search.brave.com/images?q=hp+G+series++pavilion++17%22+G&source=web

old PCs do that, for many reasons. but no PC told at all just HP. 40 years of PCs ,10000 + models nobody can guess ever. but I do have the answer, in pure generic form. did you buy the PC like that used and bad Wifi. ?

1. the wifi card is missing, as was super common 10+ years ago.
2. someone put in the wrong card, not from HP list
3. HP blacklists (bios blocks) none HP cards (wifi)
4. the card needs a driver to work if not it is dead or 1/2 dead.
5. the PC needs 1 more driver to make the wifi buttons all work , all buttons related, if not they are dead or act odd.
6. The OS is infected, no OS told at all, not one clue nor if upgraded the OS, and not vast drivers are wrong or missing, (classic)

Im sure this this is not the free w10 upgrade, if it was that too kills drivers dead, for sure HP told you this unstated PC will not run W10 and has zero support from HP, on w10 AS YOUR SUPPORT PAGE WILL DISCLOSE TO YOU AT HP.COM

today there are many PDF , Viewers not juts Adobe ! google finds them like this. https://www.google.com/search?q=pdf%20viewers

bad news now your bricked it just like miillions did google bios update bricked my PC and cry. why are you here and not at HP.com only they can recover bios. they changed the rules now 10 time. so only they know this, and are pain to deal with. UEFI is the enemy here, new rule and regressive as can be. in fact all new PCs can not be regressed, and some old now they even delete the 20 version of bios there, to force that. not saying they did that to your PC, but keep that in your head on all HP PC. the last bios upgrade stated, no going back. the Cntrl_+B might work , the flashback bios trick\ in your manual if you read it.

nobody can we erase all and reload the OS fresh. did not say you can not try but that 99 out 100 will fail.

100% dead black screen no text or HP SPLASH screen now. The problem is hardware where we buy hardware for free, less than at deity level or a thief. you tell me.... no PC told at all not one tiny clue of 1000s of HP models for 4decades are we to guess models and lie to you? now the GENERIC answer USA PCs only sorry I do not do others. fans dead? no beeps> codes no Caps lock key blink codes. no text errors.? 1: does PC run BIOS pages if huge now shorted old relic battery is removed ,yes bingo 1. 2: is the RTC coin cell dead, ,Bingo 2. a $1 uSD ,USA cost. here. 3: the pre 2010 all have bad CCFL lamps; do this flash light test? https://www.pcdied.com/monitors_and_screens/flash-light-trick.html#flashlighttest if yes, that is a $50 to $100 USD parts repair , labor more. repairs are serial process, as fixing one thing bad ,uncovers the next this is how mans machines work just like that. NO PC told, NO PC told,NO PC told,NO PC told,NO PC told,NO PC told,NO PC told, all I can do is BEG,

hp.com go there tell what PC it is (above is wrong, you truncated it) only full model names and number all work. or use your service tag number.

DEAD ZONE IS THAT A PC GAME OR just means in a quandary. yes, is he answer. wifi zone dead, move closer to the router. bingo. WIFI YOU MEAN, "SPECIFICALLY" not Bluetooth or WWLAN 5G. sure. BLUE, I GUESS YOU MEAN YOUR CABLE MODEM IS BLUE LED GLOWING?, well , there are 100s of routers and modems now, even mixed. to 1. yes if the modem LED show connection is good that means it is. but does not mean he PC is ok , nor the router nor the DNS setting best is, call your ISP if all PCs fails and home if only one fails on wifi the say so and we fix just that one failing PC. or reset the router and modem if all fail.

1. first do the modem , pull the AC power pack from modem
2. replace in a minute or 2,
3. the wait for modem to show all good LED CONDTIONS.
4. THEN DO THE SAME ON THE ROUTER.
5. DO NOT PUSH ANY RESET BUTTONS OR BAD HAPPENS.
