Today my boy turned 2 years and I want to share my experience

Before we start, my specs are i5-13420H and rtx 3050 6gb 16gb ram and 512 gb SSD.

I bought this beauty in oct 2024. I mostly use this to play games and study and my experience was pretty good.

The only problems I am currently facing are the battery,camera and the trackpad.

My battery is cooked and it's faulty.

My camera is not working I don't know why. It randomly stopped working.

And lastly the trackpad, don't know why it feels floaty like too high input delay and I can't fix it so I am using the mouse to use it.

I changed its thermal paste 3 months ago and I clean the fans every 3-4 months.

Thanks to God that I haven't faced the hinge issue and I am pretty serious about it. I only open the lid from the middle and never apply force on the left or right side of the display.

HP Victus display failed after ~2 years with no physical damage — ₹12k–₹15k replacement

My ₹75,000 HP Victus (13th Gen i5), just ~2 years old, has developed a serious display issue with no physical damage.

The service centre says it could be due to “usage or heat.” The original display replacement costs around ₹12k–₹15k.

Why should a ₹75k laptop have a major display failure after only 2 years of normal use without any external damage?

Very disappointed. Has anyone else faced this issue with their Victus? Video attached.

My HP-Victus laptop is stuck in a bitlocker recovery loop

My HP Victus randomly shut off one day and became stuck in the Windows Recovery Environment. After repeatedly pressing Enter for hours, I eventually got back into Windows, but a few days later it happened again overnight. Now I'm permanently stuck at the BitLocker Recovery screen. I have the BitLocker recovery key that's not the issue. I've tried System Recovery, Startup Settings, disabling automatic restart, and reinstalling Windows using a USB. Every option either loads for a few seconds, goes to a black screen, or restarts and sends me back to BitLocker.
HP's hardware diagnostics/Advanced Test passed. I need help figuring out why the laptop keeps restarting and getting stuck in this loop.

After updating to 26h2 and i clean installed windows too what is the cause of this

EDIT : I FOUND THE SOLUTION its a known issue - unableto find type [System.ServiceProcess.ServiceNotFoundException] instead. The warning is never written and the tweaks job aborts, so every tweak after it is skipped.hopefully this might be fixed in a later update
