Welcome to the HP Forums, this is a great location to get assistance! I read your post and see that you are getting error while running hardware diagnostics on your computer. I would like to help you resolve this issue.
However, I will need a few details to provide an accurate solution,
- Provide the HP Product number?

- Please provide more information about the issue.
Cheers.

Hi @Robertagol, I am the Mr.Robot. It looks like you were interacting with @sandytechy20, but he is out of the office today, so I'll take over from here.
I appriciate your efforts for writing back to us.
As you mentioned your PC is running very slow after trying out the steps.
Try updating the BIOS and chipset driver on your PC and check if it helps.
Update the BIOS using this link: https://hp.care/2LuLQE2
Also, update the chipset drivers on your PC using this link: https://hp.care/2Lu1JKO
You can try updating the drivers on your PC using HP support assistant.
Refer this article to know more information about using HP support assistant.
If the issue still persists after trying out the steps try the steps recommended below.
In Windows, search for Command Prompt. In the search results, right-click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator. Then click Yes.
In Command Prompt, type sfc /scannow. Make sure to include the space between sfc and the /.
Press Enter and wait while System File Checker scans for corrupted files.
When scanning is complete, the results are displayed on the screen.
If the file checker found and replaced any corrupted files, restart the computer and check the performance.
If the file checker did not find any corrupted files or found corrupted files but could not replace them, go to the next step.
If System File Checker finds corrupted files but cannot replace them, use the Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) tool. DISM checks the corrupted files; then downloads and replaces the files using Windows Update.
In Windows, open a web browser.
NOTE:
You need to be connected to the Internet to use DISM.
In Windows, search for Command Prompt. In the search results, right-click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator. Then click Yes.
In Command Prompt, type dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth. Make sure to include the space before each / in the command line.
Press Enter and wait while DISM works. This might take several minutes.
If DISM finds corrupted files, it replaces them using Windows Update. If this occurs, after DISM is finished, restart your computer and see if the performance has improved.

If the issue still persists try running a system diagnostics test on your PC and check if the hardware on your laptop is functioning correctly.
