Pavilion

Pavilion was stuck on ‘repairing disk errors’. I ran quick and then extensive disk repairs. Both failed.

Any ideas?

IF both tests failed, that means the drive has failed and needs to be replaced.

 

Once you have the replacement drive, read this information about how to restore your PC to working condition using the HP Cloud Recovery tool:

 

If your PC is a 2016 model or newer, you should see if you can make a bootable USB recovery drive using the HP cloud recovery tool on a working PC.

The recovery drive can then be used to install Win10 and the HP drivers and utilities that originally came with your PC.
