I have a HP Notebook - 14-cf1599sa which I have had for just over a year. In the past few months whenever I pick up the notebook while it is on it either freezes and refuses to work until I turn it off and on manually, or it makes a strange noise and the recovery page comes up but the percentage for restarting never changes and just stays at 0.
I
Any ideas what might be wrong with it and what I can do to stop it happening?

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:
Open the System Tests menu when Windows won't start.
-
Hold the power button for at least five seconds to turn off the computer.
-
Turn on the computer and immediately press Esc repeatedly, about once every second. When the menu appears, press the F2 key.
-
On the main menu, click System Tests.
The System Tests menu displays.
Run the Extensive Test. This test can take 2 or more hours to complete.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
