Product: HP Notebook - 14-bs153od
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

This computer has been slow since Day 1.
I have loaded \Windows 11 in the hopes that it would get faster, but NO.
I have reloaded several times and after a few days its slow again.

I ran diagnostics, which said the hard drive has errors.
Now I cannot even load it from the start button.
