HP Touchsmart with a BIOHD - 8 error code. What does it mean and what can I do?

Computer keeps crashing. Ran diagnostics and it came up with the error code BIOHD -8 for the hard drive. What do I do?

Here are the specs and ordering options for your HP TouchSmart IQ526t CTO Desktop Computer. Since this is a configure-to-order model, I have no way of knowing the size of the hard drive in your computer. Please post the size of the hard drive shown on your order slip or in Windows. Sizes available for ordering were;
320 GB 7200 rpm SATA 3G (3.0 Gb/sec)
500 GB 7200 rpm SATA 3G (3.0 Gb/sec)
640 GB 7200 rpm SATA 3G (3.0 Gb/sec)
750 GB 7200 rpm SATA 3G (3.0 Gb/sec)
1 TB 5400 rpm SATA 3G (3.0 Gb/sec)
Here are some detailed instructions on Replacing the Hard Drive in your IQ526T.

The movies are Dexter that we purchased at a store. He uses the Air and since it does not have the disk option this is how we were hoping he could view his shows. We had no idea we would be breaking the law....just wanted to put all of the movies we have purchased on the external solely for the intent of our viewing.
Thank you for your time and help.
Sorry.

When i open up itunes it displays the message, "an unknow error occured (-42110). What does this mean and how do i get rid of it?

Hello BROUN,
That specific error has to do with Movie Rentals.
From "iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting:"
This alert is related to iTunes Store movie rentals and authorization issues.
Make sure you are using the most recent version of iTunes and QuickTime. They both can be downloaded free of charge.
If your iTunes is up to date, remove the SC Info folder.
As the article says above, if you continue to have issues then refer to "iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases" for instructions on how to remove the "SC Info" folder.
Hope that helps,
-Griff W.
