HP boot issue

[Maxj16]

Hi, 

I’ve tried to boot my laptop, but am getting the following error message :- 

boot device not found

please install an operating system on your hard disk.

hard disk (3fo)

I have been through the steps shown on the following :-

intel Optane on step 3 is not showing up on my laptop, so I’m assuming this is not an option for me. 

I also get nothing when pressing f11 on start up, I just go Straight through to the original error message. 

hard drive is all working fine as per checks. 
I have also taken out and tried another. 

is anyone able to offer any further advice please?

I reviewed your post and I understand that the computer is not booting to Windows and you are getting a 3F0 error.

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

What is the product number of your computer?

What is the operating system you are using?

Meanwhile, I recommend you follow the steps in the below article and check if it helps.

Thanks for getting back to me. 

I’ve attempted the steps you advised, but I can’t get past the boot screen. 
on start up I can press f10 for the system menu, otherwise it takes me straight to the error message . 

my product ID is as follows :- 4RD90EA#ABU

operating system is windows 10. 

thanks in advance
