@Maes737, Welcome to HP Support Community!
Let's try to run an extensive system test from F2 and check if the hardware components on your PC are functioning correctly
1. Hold the power button for at least five seconds to turn off the computer.
2. Turn on the computer and immediately press Esc repeatedly, about once every second.
When the menu appears, press the F2 key.
3. On the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics (UEFI) main menu, click System Tests.
4. Click Extensive Test.
5. Click Run once, or Loop until error.
While the test is running, the time remaining and test result for each component are
shown on the screen.
6. If a component fails a test, write down the failure ID (24-digit code) so you have it
available when you contact HP Customer Support. The information is also available in
Test Logs on the main menu.
Refer this article to know more information about running system diagnostics on your PC. Click Here
If the test passes it an OS related issue. Please reach out to the HP Support in your region regarding the service options for your computer.
