HP Pavilion 15.6 inch Gaming Laptop PC 15-ec2000 (2P6B3AV)

Hi,

 

I have a big problem with my HP Pavillon 15 recently.

 

I can't boot into Windows 10, into recovery mode, or into a USB stick with Windows 10/11 on it.

 

In 'normal' boot mode the windows icon loops for hours without any results.

In 'Recovery' mode, the windows icon runs for 10 minutes before giving me a bluescreen with the error code DRIVER_PNP_WATCHDOG

When I try to boot from a USB key, it fails to launch the windows installer and sends me directly to 'normal' boot

 

The BIOS detects my USB key and the USB Boot is active

 

Do you have any idea how I can recover a working windows 10/11 installation?

 

Thanks 🙂

Hi,

 

As mentioned in my first message, I have already tried to reinstall windows with a USB key.

 

I launch well on the USB key but nothing happens and it sends me to the Windows boot manager

 

Have a great day

Hello @FraWil 

 

(1) Try both <USB flash disk> Type 2.0 and 3.0.

 

(2) Please send pictures of all bios settings

( if serial number, device id, UUID, System Board CT Number is displayed, please blur )

Hello @FraWil 

 

HP Diagnostics does not detect <all errors>. In your case, it could be a technical error. Mainboard or components or combination.

 

I can't say more at the moment...

 

In your case: Service is required !
You should have it <serviced> by a professional notebook (chip level) repair store.

 

Good luck
