Thanks a lot for your prompt feedback.
1) I updated my OS from Windows 10 to Windows 11 and everything was working normally for several days. But today the laptop switched off and when I started it again I saw only the HP logo and message "Please wait". After several minutes the black screen of death appeared as in the photo below. Then after a couple of seconds the system restarts and again there is HP logo and "Please wait" on the screen.
