@fixit64 I've successfully deciphered the failure ID and here's what it represents: code - 303 = Hard Disk 1 Quick Test Failure,
And I suggest you talk to HP support and discuss your options, follow the below steps to get started:
1) Click on this link - http://www.hp.com/contacthp/
2) Click on Sign-in or select the product using the below step:
3) Enter the serial of your device.
4) Select the country from the drop-down.
5) Click on "Show Options".
Fill the web-form, to populate a case number and phone number for yourself!
Also, if you are having trouble navigating through the above options, it's most likely because the device is out of warranty, if yes? please send me a private message with the region you are contacting us from,

Well, the second steps was a mere h/w test to identify the issue, did you Click here and perform the tests? If not, please do,
If yes, what's the result of the test, did it pass or fail? If it failed what's the error/failure ID?
