But I stil don't now why my ps is not going to my login screen. Is it my hard drive or is it something else. Oh and what new hard drive do I need to buy?
HP Recommended

If the HDD has failed, this is why it won't go to your login screen.  It sounds to me like you are very uncomfortable with repairing a computer, I advise you to take it to a local computer shop.  They will diagnose the problem and fix whatever has failed.  I simply don't want to cause you any further problems.

I already remover my hdd but I don't know what hdd I need to get.
HP Recommended

Thank you for the additional information, @Semih_38.

 

Here are the specs of the current HDD:

 

1.5 TB SATA 3G (3.0 Gb/sec)

  • 5400 rpm

You should buy a HDD the same size or larger to assure that the HP Recovery media will work to recover the system.  I like Western Digital products.  They seem to have less problems.  If you have further questions about the best HDD for your system, I suggest contacting Western Digital's Tech Support for help.  They are the experts on their products.
