Hi @Miki38,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.
I understand your HP PC has shut down and is now showing the UEFI Hardware Diagnostics screen. It likely means the system detected a hardware issue or was manually triggered into diagnostics mode. Here's what you can do next:
1. Check What Test Is Running
- If a test is already running, let it complete.
- If it’s asking you to choose a test, start with:
- Quick Test (takes a few minutes)
- If issues persist, run the Extensive Test (can take over an hour)
2. Note Any Error Codes
- If a test fails, it will show a 24-digit failure ID.
- Write this down—you’ll need it if you contact HP Support.
3. If All Tests Pass
- Try restarting your PC.
- If it still doesn’t boot into Windows, you may need to:
- Perform a Startup Repair
- Boot into Safe Mode
- Use System Restore (if enabled)
If You Want to Exit Diagnostics
- Press Esc or click Main Menu > Exit.
- Then try restarting your PC.
I hope this helps.
Take care, and have an amazing day!
