When I start my laptop up, I am able to log in (if I log in within about 10-15 seconds, otherwise I can’t log in), and I am then able to maybe open up one application, click a few times and it freezes.
I have completed a quick test on my memory and hard drive.
I have also completed an extensive system test, all of which passed.
I have tried cleaning it with CCleaner (although I do this often anyway) and searching for viruses using my McAfee Anti-Virus license, but these haven’t made a difference either.
I can’t complete any suggestions that involve using the computer as it just freezes every time I use it.
The only thing I can really do is use the Bios menu.
I have also tried to contact HP but when it tells me I need to log in to create a case, it gives me this error message ‘403 - Forbidden: Access is Denied’. I have also tried on Google Chrome and it does the same.

Contacted HP and tried BIOS resetting but to no avail.
Most likely a corrupted windows so I need to take out my hard drive and back my files onto a different computer, if you can’t do this then you can go to a computer repair/tech shop.
Then install another version of windows onto my laptop using a USB.
