Product: compaq q2000
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 (32-bit)
Hi, I have compaq desktop. It's stuck on auto repair loop. If I run a system test it is showing short DST as: FAILED.
I have the error message UANDW4-0009HF-9XH2W1-60QX03
What are my options now to get this fixed? thanks, Mike

Hi, Mike:
The code reported, Hard Disk 1 Quick Test Failure, means that the hard drive needs to be replaced and the operating system reinstalled.
Below is the link to the service manual for your PC.

You can find the hard drive removal and replacement procedure in this manual.
