Hi Zuhoor,


Upgrading to Windows 10 might have made recovery partition corrupted and inoperable.

Do you have Recovery USB/discs that you must have created after first setup of this laptop?

If you don't have, you may have to order recovery discs from here: http://computersurgeons.com/p-21738-windows-7-64b-recovery-kit-694679-001-for-hp-pavilion-entertainm...

Else follow the suggestion given by Paul Tikkanen in this thread to make Windows 7 installation media and do Clean install:
