I am stuck in "Attempting Repairs".

I am stuck in "Attempting Repairs." Long time ago, my father told me that this laptop fell twice. Everyone says that once the laptop fell, it will hang and a couple of months ago, this laptop was hang and I tried to restart it but the "Please wait" always showing up. Luckily, it restored but always hang and has slow movements(?). Right now, I tried to open it but I am stuck again but this time, it's "Attempting Repairs".

Replace the Hard drive and re-install all software.
