Hi @mwitagabriel
The Caps lock light blinking is an error code telling you what the problem is.
Here's an [https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_1997719-1528356-16|article] that shows what each pattern of blinking means.
Scroll down and select ''Identify the notebook light or beep code'' and then select the blink pattern that matches what the Cap lock light in your laptop is showing.
