Hi @M-Jallow,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

It sounds like your HP Pavilion g6 is running a disk check or repair utility, likely due to detected file system errors or bad sectors on the hard drive. This process can take a while, depending on the extent of the issues and the size of the disk.

Here’s what you can do:

• Be Patient: Disk repairs can take a significant amount of time, especially if there are a lot of errors or if the drive is large. Let the process run uninterrupted if possible.
• Avoid Interrupting: Try not to turn off or restart the laptop while the repair is in progress, as this can potentially cause further damage to the disk or data loss.
• Check Progress: If you see no progress for a long time, or if you encounter any error messages, you might need to troubleshoot further. Sometimes, a restart might be required if the process gets stuck.
• Backup Data: Once the repair is complete and your system is operational, consider backing up your important data. Disk errors can sometimes indicate a failing hard drive, so it’s wise to have a backup.
• Run Diagnostics: After the repair, you might want to run a full diagnostic on your hard drive to ensure it's functioning properly. HP provides tools like the HP Support Assistant.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
