Hi 3donny,

 

There are couple of steps that you may try. 

 

1) If you can remove the battery, then please turn the computer off, remove the battery and unplug the charger .. press the power button for 15 seconds .. let go and then reseat the battery and charger .. turn the computer on. 

 

   if battery cannot be removed .. then unplug the charger and press and hold the power button and volume down button for 15 seconds, let go the button and restart the computer. 

 

2) if the error code still appears.. then turn the computer off.  As you press the power button keep tapping on F2 .. this will show the hardware diagnostics screen .. choose hard disk and quick test .. please let me know if you get any error .

 

The error in hdd test , means we will have to change the hard disk drive of your computer.. 

 

If the hdd test is passed.. then we can reinstall the Operating system .. For this. Turn the computer off. As you press the power button, keep tapping on F11 .. this will show the screen with different options.. -Choose troubleshoot -> recovery manager -> System recovery.

 

Your reply is eagery awaited 🙂

 

Regards,

Ashok ... HP..always working
