Hi,

This could indicate a problem with the hard drive. You should try running hardware diagnostics on the drive. Turn off the PC by holding the power button. Press the power button and continuously press ESC until the startup menu appears. Press F2 to enter diagnostics and perform the fast test or hard drive component test.

If you get a failure id or continue to have problems, you should contact HP directly in the UK. Insert the serial number of the notebook in the link below and see the contact options available.:
