U mean F10 and then F9 for defaults.
Tried that didn't worked.

 

F10 is for the complete Bios (usually 4 tabs with all your options including Boot Order)

F9 is for JUST selecting a one time boot device great for a bootable usb drive or DVD/CD - Windows or Linux for example, ..

 

and by the way, The Ubuntu Live disc/usb (or any linux version) can also be used to troubleshoot and/or install, one of the best troubleshooters in the business as it also allows one to work online from a complete usable desktop environment, OR Install if you wamnt of course.  It also has the best partition manager around which manages any format in the world. (Gparted or something simillar).

Another great thing (and many more about having a free Ubuntu .iso around).

 

Cheers, Mark -

Hi @AbdulSami1,

 

 

What operating system are your running?

 

 You stated you have a new hard drive is it a SSD drive?

 

What were the results from the troubleshooting?

 

Here is a link to assist you with changing the boot order as was suggested by another poster.

 

HP PCs - Configuring the Boot Order in the System BIOS

 

Once you have accessed the bios,along the bottom you should see an option for defaults.  Try selecting it as this will have it scan for the attached hardware.

 

Please let me know the results.

Hi @AbdulSami1,

 

Thank you for the reply.

 

I understand you are now able to access the bios.

 

Are you still getting the same error on startup?

 

Have you tried testing the hard drive from the bios diagnostics?

Hi @AbdulSami1,

 

 

Thank you for the update.

 

 

Is the hard drive listed in the bios?

 

Have you checked the hard drive connections?

Hi @AbdulSami1,

 

 

I  grasp that you are still unable to run the diagnostics.

 

What operating system are you running?

 

When you had to redo your hard drive, did you do a recovery using recovery manager or did you install from a Windows disk?

 

Here is a link to the Pavilion 15-n210se Software and Drivers.  Please try downloading the diagnostics and installing them.  There is a diagnostic files listed under both Windows 7 and 8.1.

 

Please let me know if this helped.
