Hi, so recently I bought an HP Omen 17-cb0059tx - https://store.hp.com/hk-en/default/omen-by-hp-17-cb0059tx-7ul13pa-1.html , and recently I'm getting a lot of blue screens from windows(My drivers should be up to date) and once I got hardrive failure "Boot Device Not Found 3F0." while I was playing a game. I was playing and at one moment the game stoped and in 1-2 sec the laptop switched to a boot failure screen with the "Boot Device Not Found 3F0.". After a restart everything was fine.
Any idea why I would get this. I understand that it can happen on boot up but during gameplay or any other activity.
