I have a product: 15eh1052wm pavilion laptop

Currently I get a loading screen saying please wait on boot up, after that I get the error stop code: Driver_PNP_Watchdogs

 

I looked up solutions and all seem to not work.

I have tried updating BIOS, which I got thw same issue as well as clean installing windoes through USB. Still the same error, but the only change was it stopped saying "please wait"

 

As well, I cannot use recovery mode (f11).

 

I have also done an extensive test on the system with the f2 function, everything seems to be in working order, but I have not unplugged anything and run it.

 

I would like to mention, hard resetting doesn't work on it as well.

 

Any help is appreciated, thank you.

Update: I took apart the laptop since I figured if it could be a hardware problem, what if there is a loose ribbon or connection, sure enough there was, but it did not solve the problem.

 

Although when the computer started gave a CMOS error 502.

 

I also realized that my hardware diagnostics is out of date, woundering if this could be the problem.

 

Thanks again.
