@Srqtanweer, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 
The image shows a SMART Hard Disk Error on an HP computer during POST (Power-On Self-Test). Here's what it means and what you should do:

🔍 What the Error Means:

• SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) has detected that the hard disk is likely to fail soon.
• This usually points to physical issues like bad sectors, read/write errors, or declining health of the drive.

⚠️ Immediate Actions to Take:

1. Back Up Your Data ASAP

• If the system still boots, copy all important files to an external drive or cloud storage immediately.

2. Run a Hard Disk Test

• Restart the PC and press F2 to run System Diagnostics.
• Select the Hard Drive Test to get more details about the error.

3. Prepare for Replacement

• If the test confirms issues, the hard drive will likely need to be replaced.
• Consider replacing the hard drive with a new SSD or HDD.

I hope this helps. 

Take care and have a good day.
