@Sehigide, Welcome to the HP Support Community!  

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding 3FO issue! 

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.  

If you encounter the hard disk error 3F0, it usually means that the BIOS is unable to detect your hard drive or SSD. Here are the steps to resolve this issue:

1. Restore BIOS Default Settings

To restore the BIOS default setting, open the BIOS Setup screen:

1. Turn off the computer and wait five seconds.
2. Press the power button to start the computer and repeatedly press the f10 key to enter the BIOS setup menu.
3. On the BIOS Setup screen, press f9 to select and load the BIOS Setup Default settings.
4. Press f10 to Save and Exit.
5. Use the arrow keys to select Yes, and then press Enter when asked Exit Saving Changes?
6. Follow the prompts to restart your computer.

2. Perform Hard Drive Symptom Test in HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI

When Windows won't start, use the following instructions to open the Symptom Tests menu, and then run the hard drive test:

1. Hold the power button for at least five seconds to turn off the computer.
2. Turn on the computer and immediately press esc repeatedly, about once every second. When the menu is displayed, press the f2 key.
3. On the main menu, click Symptom Tests.
4. Select Hard disk/SSD drive issue, and then press enter.
5. If the computer has more than one hard drive, select the drive to test. To test all the hard drives, select Test All Hard Drives 

Hope this helps! 

Take care, and have an amazing day!
