I have an ho envy. It stopped starting up. It won’t let me recover to an older date or restore to manufacture settings. Since then I get a windows boot message advising. Windows failed to start. I don’t have a disk drive or disk to reset. Used the support assistant to run a hard drive test which passed. The memory test failed. Can anyone help please.
