Hi:

 

The error code reported, Hard Disk 1 Quick Test Failure, means that you will need to replace the hard drive, and reinstall the operating system.

 

Below is the link to the service manual, where you can find the hard drive R & R procedure.

You may want to consider purchasing a better performing, normally more reliable 2.5" solid state drive (SSD).

 

You can reinstall W10 by using the Media creation tool at the link below to create an 8 GB bootable USB installation flash drive.

After W10 installs, you can install the drivers and available software from your notebook's support page.
