@RajOmen, Welcome to the HP Support Community!  

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding Boot Issues Caused by startrep.exe Application Error! 

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.  

When your HP computer encounters a startrep.exe application error during boot, and system recovery options are ineffective, you can follow these steps to troubleshoot and possibly resolve the issue:

Perform a Hard Reset

A hard reset (or forced reset) can resolve many boot-related issues by clearing the computer's memory.

1. Turn off the computer.
2. Remove the computer from any port replicator or docking station.
3. Disconnect all external connected peripheral devices such as USB storage devices, external displays, and printers.
4. Unplug the AC adapter from the computer.
5. Disconnect the battery (if you have a removable battery).
6. Press and hold the power button for at least 15 seconds to drain residual power.
7. Reconnect the battery and plug the AC adapter back into the computer, but do not connect any of the peripheral devices.
8. Press the power button to turn on the computer.
9. If a startup menu appears, use the arrow keys to select "Start Windows Normally", and then press the Enter key.
10. After reconnecting each of the peripheral devices, run Windows Update and HP Support Assistant to update all device drivers.  

Hope this helps! 

Take care, and have an amazing day!
