Pavilion 15-n028us
Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

I recently updated my windows version from 8 to 8.1. After the update I stopped seeing wifi network and tried to resolve this issue. But not I can't boot my PC. It says "boot device not found". Please what do I do? I'm frustrated right now.

Welcome to HP support community.

 

Step 1: Perform a hard reset

Step 2: Restore BIOS default settings

 

Step 3: Test the hard drive using HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI 

 

Step 4: Re-seat the hard drive (here's a generic video that shows how to re-seat the drive: Click here) > 3F0 error represent a hardware malfunction, a reseat should help, if it doesn't or you aren't comfortable, please Contact HP as the next step will not help.

 

Step 5: Perform an HP System Recovery

 

If none of the above actions resolved the error condition, back up your personal data and then perform an HP System Recovery on the notebook. See one of the following documents for instructions:
