'Battery Alert' appears before the 'press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.', however, ' Cooling Fan Alert' appears after 'press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.'

Hi,

First of all: I know that I have been having a problem with my HP Laptop Battery, and with its cooling Fan.

However, I am now wondering what detected this error below as long as it was shown even before  the notification saying 'the press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.' Thus, if the BIOS detected that there was a problem with the HP Battery storage', then this error should have been listed after 'press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.' was passed.

'HP Battery Alert:    The system has detected the storage capacity of the battery stated below to be very low. For optimal performance, this battery may need to be replaced.'

That alert lasted about 15 seconds, and then the 'press 'press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.' is shown.

Next: This is error below showed me::

'The system didn't detect that a cooling fan is operating correctly'

I know that BIOS detected that a problem with 'Cooling Fan' since the Alert of error was shown after passing 'press 'ESC' key for Start-up menu.'

Any comments would be highly appreciated

    You mean with tap the 'power off/on' button with my finger with clicking on it quickly since slowly will shut my notebook off.

    Yes

    Thanks a lot,

    Could you please be more patient with me here?

    1- You don't want to suggest anything about how to get my heatsink/fan shipped by an online seller. I don't find anyone willing to ship to Yemen.

    2- I will try that when I will be faced with a freezing condition since, as said before, this only happens sometimes.

    But if that didn't help, then I only have on choice which is to hold down the power button on the keyboard?????

    I wish that all notebooks have a 'reset/restart' button along with 'power off/on' button on the keyboard which could be useful when my notebook gets frozen. 

    Most likely the laptop manufacture for safety reasons. You need to stop the use of Videos until you repair your laptop. Constant and repeated overheating could sooner or later destroy your CPU / Processor.

    3- You meant that I cannot disable, and enable that action if I want to do.

    Only can suggest you try applying a small amount of thermal paste to a piece of copper you may have or can get from a scrap yard (let it heat up in the sun for a couple of days) and try using any liquid you think of that may when using the white cloth "Totally" remove the thermal compound.

    4- This is just a simulation:(test how well you are able to remove the old thermal in use on my heatsink, and CPU surfers), You need me to apply a small amount of the new thermal compound on a piece of copper, let it heat up in the sun for a couple of days. --- So, it will be like the thermal paste that has been in use on  "heat sink and CPU". Then, I use any liquid I think of that may when using the white cloth "Totally" remove the thermal compound."

    If so, then I would be saying the piece of copper will be not like removing CPU, and GPU surface since there are some places under the CPU, and GPU on where there is some old thermal compound is dried

    Thanks a lot, 

    No comments on my two points posted before can be understood as you don't have understood me.

    Try quickly tapping the power key 1 time (don't hold it down, just tap it with your finger) to see if that unfreezes your laptop.

    Use the keyboard and press hold the  Ctrl + Alt + Del  keys down. You should then see a Windows with the power shutdown (Typically red in color) located in the lower right corner of the display.

    I have tried that, but that make no difference at all. There is no response, and the notebook gets still frozen. This is only works in some time, however, in other times when my notebook gets frozen for some reason, this doesn't help at all. I think this freezing is called 'deadly-frozen process'
