HP ProBook 6560b power led blinking white/amber, does not start
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?

Try taking out the battery, unplugging and holding down the power button for 15 seconds. You may also try holding power+mute together

A bad power brick can cause this also.

OK, then it must be an internal problem with the motherboard.
