Hi @Purangaur,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

I understand you are seeing a System Error (908) when starting the computer. We’ll need a little more information to identify the correct cause and steps.

Could you please confirm:

• What is the exact HP PC model/product number? Please do not post the serial number.
• What is the complete error message displayed along with 908? A photo of the error screen would also help.
• Does the computer shut down automatically after displaying the error?
• Have you noticed the PC overheating, unusually loud fan noise, or the fan not running?

If the message is actually System Fan (90B) or another 90-series fan error, HP states that this indicates a problem related to the computer’s cooling system.

For now:

1. Shut down the computer.
2. Check the external air vents for dust or blockage and carefully clean them.
3. Always use the computer on a hard, flat surface so the ventilation openings are not obstructed.
4. Turn the PC back on and check whether the error returns.

HP provides additional guidance here: HP PCs - 900, 901, 909, 90A, 90B, 90E, 90F, 911 error is displayed on a black screen | HP® Support.

Please share the exact PC model and the complete error message, and we can guide you with the appropriate HP-specific steps.

I hope this helps.
