HP Laptop - 15t-dw200 CTO
Microsoft Windows 11

 I purchased a 15t-dw200 just about a year ago.  I left the computer on the table for less than 10 minutes, came back to a black screen. It wouldn’t turn on. I tried to restart by holding the power button. Once the screen came on it shows: Boot Device Not Found. Please install an operating system on your hard disk. 
Hard Disk (3FO).

 

I have tried F2 diagnostics. The quick hard drive test passes as well as the Extensive check. 

I have no idea what to do.

Hi:

 

The only suggestion I can offer would be to see if your notebook is supported by the HP cloud recovery tool.

 

You can use the cloud recovery tool to create a bootable USB recovery drive that will reinstall W10, the drivers and the software that originally came with your PC.

 

Here is an info link for how to use the utility.   You will need a 32 GB USB flash drive and another PC running W7 64 bit or newer to create the recovery media with.

You will lose all data on the hard drive by using the HP cloud recovery tool.
