While browsing Youtube, I noticed a slowness while navigating a few tabs. The computer crashed as soon as I pressed the tab to close. I had to shut down the computer. When I tried to open it again, it gave an operating system not found error. I went into the system diagnostics tab. HDD test gave error "No hardware found. Check cables".

Does your laptop have the M.2 SSD or a SATA HD as boot drive?

 

Is your notebook still in the warranty period (one year)?
