Hi,

The long Disk Self Test ( DST ) failure would indicate that the Hard Drive is failing and needs to be replaced.

If your notebook is still under warranty, contact HP (with the 24 character error code for the long dst failure) and arrange to have the drive replaced - you can check your warranty status Here.

If you live in the US, contact HP Here.

If you are in another part of the world, start Here.

If you are out of warranty and would like a guide on replacing the Hard Drive yourself, please let me know.

Regards,

DP-K

Hey DP-K, I bought my laptop during Black Friday sales and so I don't have warranty. I also have the same problem. Where can I buy the exact hard drive I need if it's a Pavilon touchsmart?

Hi, I've had the same problem.  Different hp computer! That is out of warranty. I replaced the hard drive already, but now I need a disc to reinstall software.  I never made recovery discs ( or if I did they are lost).  I don't keep data on the computer so a factory reset is fine.  I tried to find discs on hp software and drivers but nothing is listed for download.  Any help on next steps?

Please start your own thread but it looks like you need to replace the hard drive.
