I have tried turning it off and on again 5 times and nothings worked
The only other screen it lets me transfer to i Sytem Diagnostics with F2

This error code nearly always means the primary drive has failed, will need to be replaced, and Windows reinstalled on the PC.


See the following HP Guide for more information:
