Hi. I'm now having the same issue. I was trying to plug in the HDMI cable and my laptop starts lagging. Waited for like 15 mins and tried various ways to restart it properly but I had no luck. So I forced to kill it buy holding the power button. I had the HDMI removed before I forced it. And then now it says that "selected boot device failed" 😁

@Envy_Maypex

Welcome to the HP Forums 🙂 

I would like to take a moment and thank you for using this forum, it is a great place to find answers. 

 

As I understand you are getting the error-"The Partition is not GPT",

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details: 

What is the product number of your device? Use this link to find it: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03754824 

(Ensure you do not share any of your personal information such as serial, phone number, email ID, etc...).

 

Are you also getting the error message-"Boot device not found"?

Which Operating System are you attempting to install?
Did you know HP doesn't recommend or support the installation of a retail copy of Windows?

 

While you respond to that, here's what you need to know:
