Sadly to say: Most of the time the 24 char failure id indicates the HDD is failing and it needs to be replaced. Is it still under warranry ? If Yes, please call HP for a replacement.

Thank you very much, unfortunately it is not under warranty anymore, i will just have to take it in so they can put in a new harddrive. 

Is there maybe a way how i can try to acces or retrive my files? Ex with ubuntu? I saw a thread were it is explained how. ? https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-System-and-Recovery/Black-screen-after-Preparing-au...
