My pc is Hp pavilion g4.

It keeps displaying error 301 (hard disc error)

What are the possible solutions from the easy ones to hardest ones.

I have tried some but they are  not yet working .

Hi,

The most likely is that the hard drive has failed and needs to be replaced. You would then also need to reinstall the OS on it.

You can perform HP diagnostics at boot on the drive:

Turn off the PC by holding the power button. Turn on PC and continously keep pressing ESC until startup menu appears and then press F2 to enter diagnostics. Try the fast test, or at least the hard drive test.

See if there are any hardware errors.

 

Hope it helps,

David
