Hi @AuroraC03,

I'd like to help!

I understand you are receiving a boot device not found error.

Try the below suggestions-

Restore BIOS default settings

To restore the BIOS default setting, open the BIOS Setup screen.

1. Turn off the computer and wait five seconds.

2. Press the power button to start the computer and repeatedly press the f10 key to enter the BIOS setup menu.

3. On the BIOS Setup screen, press f9 to select and load the BIOS Setup Default settings.

4. Press f10 to Save and Exit.

5. Use the arrow keys to select Yes, and then press Enter when asked Exit Saving Changes?

6. Follow the prompts to restart your computer.

Reinstall Windows 10 on the hard drive

Reinstall Windows through the Windows Recovery Environment (f11) or using the HP Cloud Recovery Tool.

• Use the steps from HP PCs - Reset the computer to perform a system reset through Windows Recovery Environment (f11) when Windows does not start.

• Or, to use HP Cloud Recovery Tool, see the documentation for your computer:

  • HP Consumer PCs - Using the HP Cloud Recovery Tool (Windows 10)

  • HP Business PCs - Using the HP Cloud Recovery Tool in Windows 10

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
