Hi, hoping someone can help. I purchased a new HP Pavilion laptop but everytime the laptop goes to sleep I’m greeted with the attached screen, if i run the troubleshooter from the blue screen it says there is no hard drive installed. I can get windows to boot back up totally fine by turning off and on but the. If i run the components test it says all is fine, it’s only not fine when going to sleep. I did run a startup repair which failed and pointed out srttrail.txt error.

Any ideas why this is and how to fix?

Hi @Tc0509,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I'd be happy to help you! 

 

I understand that you are getting c:\ windows\system32\logfiles\srt\srttrail.txt log error.

 

In that case, I would suggest you perform the hard drive test and check.

 

1) Shut down the computer.  

2) Turn the computer back on again and repeatedly tap on the ESC until a Startup menu appears.  

3) Press F2 once.  

4) Go to Component test.  

5) From the list, run the Hard Drive (extensive) test.  

 

If the test is passed, you have to perform the RECOVERY. Click here for more details. 

Note: Before performing recovery, you may have to backup the data, as you may lose all installed applications.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

Hi

Sorry for the delay. After testing with HP Support they determined it was a hardware problem and recommended i return the device to Currys as it was new. I then got a replacement one but this still has the issue where the device shows the error when it goes to sleep. 

HP support had me run lots of checks and also reinstall windows completely, none of which resolved the issue which is why it was determined a hardware issue. 

sadly now the replacement also is the same so i’m starting to wonder, could this be a software issue? 

Any idea where to go to from here?
