My laptop is not booting up, it shows HP Logo while turning it on and then it shows just black screen, underneath the HP Logo it also shows text "Preparing Automatic Repair". When I ran Recovery Option it just blacked out and then I ran System Diagnosis Hard Drive Quick Test and it shows Warning in Hard Drive Short DST Check.
