Hello and thanks for joining the HP forums. If you have replaced a hard drive on your notebook you will need to order recovery discs in order to reinstall the operating system. You can order recovery discs here:

Would seem to indicate your HDD has gone bad and needs to be replaced. To Restore you computer back you need to get the recovery media to reformat back to factory install to get your computer back and working. If under warranty you will have to contact HP support to fix this problem but you will somehow need to get the recovery media to restore it back to factory install.

I need to install an operating system on your hard Disk
My hp laptop is 1 year old and is advising I need to install an operating system on my hard disk? What do I do?
It did have an operating system before right? The hard drive has gotten corrupted or possibly has died. Try hitting F10 as you power up, go into the BIOS (setup) and run the hard drive test to see if it can pass. If so, you have a corruption of the boot files on the hard drive. If there is a failure you are going to have to get a new hard drive. A merely corrupt as opposed to damaged drive can be fixed by running a hard drive scan and repair utility or possibly the operating system will have to be reinstalled. This kind of thing can be caused by a virus, for example. Post back with the results of the hard drive test and we can walk you through your options. I am assuming you are past the warranty period.

I turn my computer on it says please install an operating system on your hard disk.
i turn my computer on it says please install an operating system on your hard disk. I've had my computer for 2 years and I never done anything different then I always have. Is there an easy way to fix it. Please help!!!!
Hi,
Shut down the notebook. Tap away at f10 as you start the notebook to enter the bios menu. Under the Advanced or Diagnostic tab you should find the facility to run tests on both the Hard Drive and Memory. Post back with the details of any error messages.
Can you also post back with the following.
1. The full Model No. and Product No. of the notebook - see Here for a further explanation.
2. The full version of the operating system you are using ( ie Windows 7 32bit ).
Regards,
DP-K

I have Toshiba laptop P-75 model :
this model have two slots for the hard disks , on my first hard disk i am running the default windows 8.1 which came with the original condition (when i bought my laptop) , since i am a civil engineer many of my field programs is not working on the
windows 8.1 version and the rest programs barely works appropriate!
I want to download windows 7 on the second hard disk, thus having dual boot in order to chose which windows i want to use.
thanks in advance
ENGR. Saeed Al-KhaledYou need to consult with Toshiba as this is a hardware specific problem and you may not be able to install Windows 7 dues to lack of hardware drivers and/or the laptop being configure for Secure Boot which Windows 7 does not cope with either.
It is your responsibility to do the research for this project to ensure compatibility and needed hardware drivers.

@adamwoo
Replace the hard drive with a new one,boot from Recovery Disks to reinstall Windows.
You could also try reseating the hdd to be sure it is plugged in securely.

How do I install Mountain Lion AND format the hard drive?
I want to do a completely clean install of Mountain Lion.
I had Snow Leopard installed, upgraded to Mountain Lion (by buying it from the App Store) but how do I tell it to format the drive and then install Mountain Lion?pforkes wrote:

Snow Leopard would have needed to be installed on a properly formatted drive, so I don't understand why you would need to format it again to that same format.

How to create a new txt file on the hard disk?
Which method in which class should I use?
there are documantatiosn and tutorials :
createNewFile :
"Atomically creates a new, empty file named by this abstract pathname if and only if a file with this name does not yet exist. The check for the existence of the file and the creation of the file if it does not exist are a single operation that is atomic with respect to all other filesystem activities that might affect the file. This method, in combination with the deleteOnExit() method, can therefore serve as the basis for a simple but reliable cooperative file-locking protocol.
Returns:
true if the named file does not exist and was successfully created; false if the named file already exists" -
How to remove encryption in the hard disk model SSDSA2BW16​0G3H
Hi,
I have a HP laptop model Elitebook 8460P. While working, it gave a physical dump error screen (blue) and then while restarting, it gave the following error.
BootDevice Not Found
Please install an operating system on your hard disk
Hard Disk – (3F0)
Now, I heard that I need to replace the hard disk with a new one, which is fine with me. But when I asked one of the data recovery agency to retrieve my data from the failed hard disk, they told me that they cant do it, as the hard disk has been encrypted.
Has anyone know how to remove the encryption or which agency does the removal of encryption on the hard disk, sothat i can get the important data that I have ??
The media is SSD and the harddisk model no. is SSDSA2BW160G3H from Intel.
Help me out please.
