Solved, by formatting Hard Drive, with creation a new partition table (msdos), setting BIOS boot at Legacy, and reinstalling OS.

Which OS can you boot? Linux? Sounds like the hard drive needs to be replaced. Can you get into F2 diagnostics as you boot up to run the hard drive check?

Yes, I can boot Ubuntu, but only with UEFI Hybrid settings in BIOS, 'cos it's provides to use boot from EFI.

 

HP DIsk Cheker, in fast mode, tell's that's everything's OK.
