What was the result of the diagnostic test? Q: What does it mean 'Hard Drive SMART Check FAILED' A: If your HDD fails the test, that means your hard drive is bad and needs to be replaced.

Install Windows 11 Onto HP Computer: /watch/IVuUi2Xcz09cU Q: The diagnostic scan says that my Hard Drive is not installed. A: If your diagnostic test cannot see your HDD, that means its either bad or loose. I would first try 'reseating' the Hard Drive. You can see that done here in this updated video: /watch/kRkrQPp2bKl2r After that, try the diagnostic scan again. If it still says that its not installed, then its most likely bad and needs to be replaced. You can see how to do that here; /watch/gHu9obK5pNt59 . You would also then need to install an operating system onto the new drive.

A: If changing the settings in BIOS did not resolve the issue and the diagnostic test passed all components, then its most likely an operating system error. Try to reinstall Windows.

Install Windows 11 Onto HP Computer: /watch/IVuUi2Xcz09cU Q: My diagnostic test says 'Unavailable' or I cant run it. What do I do? A: I would first try 'reseating' the Hard Drive. You can see that done here in this updated video: /watch/kRkrQPp2bKl2r . See if that helps. If you cant run the test, then we don’t know for sure if the HDD is bad or not. You can proceed a couple different ways. You can assume its good and that the Operating System is the cause of your error. Or you can assume its bad and replace it before installing an Operating System to the new one.
