Hi,
You should first let us know what the product or model number of the machine is
HP Notebook PCs - How Do I Find My Product Name or Number? | HP® Customer Support
Usually this indicates that the Hard Drive has failed and needs to be replaced. Then reinsall the OS.
You can try running test at boot and see if the drive has a hardware problem.
Turn off the PC by holding the power button until complete shutdown.
Turn on the PC and repeatedly press ESC until startup menu appears.
Press F2 to enter diagnostics.
Try performing the fast system test (or hard drive test) and see if there are any failure ids.
Let us know,
David
