I fixed my faulty HP laptop with a hammer. It didn't solve the hard drive issue but I felt a lot better. Never again would I purchase a HP product. My mobile phone is faster.
I have exams tomorrow and my laptop does this to me 😃🤘 update 6 months later: i used my phone for the exam and it turns out that the laptop i was using fell flat on its screen when the owner that time was my older sibling.. the said laptop is now finally fixed (after being on standby for months) for the usage of my younger sibling and i got a hand-me-down laptop from my cousin so it all worked great in the end ☺
I just purchased this used computer for $50. I am not sure how things will end up. However, after following your directions the system is updating and I see the welcome screen! This is the best it's been and has cost me nothing more! Thank you and God bless you!
I spent my 4 month savings on a HP shit, i have issues with power throttling, issues with ports, issues outta nowhere, then the same problem as the guy in the video, idk if im gonna destroy my laptop and save for a year to buy something like i dunno Razer, Dell or even a MacBook, and i hate Macs, but if they are more reliable then this shit im going for it
Oh if you think their products suck just try calling their tech support. Man, they will make you flip your wig. The guy had me on the line for 2 hours while he watched a youtube video to try and help me! Oh and the clincher was they charged me $89 bucks and refused to give me a refund. Well I one upped them and disputed it with my credit card company and got my money back. I then watched a youtube video and fixed the issue myself. HP is incompetent. The sad part is I have an HP desktop, all-in-one printer, fax machine. The sickness goes on and on. When they conk out I'm not going anywhere near an HP anything! Whew! Thanks for letting me vent.
Street Active11hunnid omg same. I went to the store were I bought my laptop from and they the dude was just like oh u gotta update windows and that's it. i tried doing that then I get the DARN SAME SCREEN AGAIN UGHHHH
This is the first time I have ever taken the time to comment on a TH-cam video. Thank you so much. I had taken my laptop apart and it wouldn't load,changing the legacy option in the bios to enabled made it run instantly. Legend mate
thanks for explaining it in such an easy to understand way. although my laptop is useless now your video helped me understand the problem a lot better, so thanks!
Thank you! I upgraded my laptop from HDD to SSD. Cloned the old HDD to the new SSD and I had this issue. Put in the old HDD and still had the issue. Legacy boot fixed it for me 👍
You are the man! I followed HPs recommendation to reset BIOS settings to default and got this problem. The “legacy boot settings” that you showed at the end is what fixed it.
Enabling the legacy thing worked. I have an HP Notebook laptop and I think it didnt shut down properly so that's why that message came up. Luckily I was able to watch this quick video and get it solved because I have class in 10 MINUTES. Thanks ✌🏾
Legacy support was my issue, I had broken my laptop and took the internals out to boot on my desk and was given this hardrive error, I had so many projects I would have hated losing. Thanks for your video man, saved me. Crazy how one can look over this simple thing because you’re panicking over losing everything 😭😂 thank you man
I did not understood the steps and the button you press to give that successful result. My HP have this problem and I am confuse because no one around me to help can you please send me the step-by-step instructions for the boot device not found, please install an operating system on hard disk. I am so happy to find this channel and God bless you.
Omg. Thank.you.so.much!!!!!!!!!! your advice worked. I had my boyfriend (whos a computer scientist), and my brother who is good with computers as well and is an engineer, both look at my computer and they didn’t know what to do. I found your video and I could not believe it worked. It gave my computer a second life. Thank you!!!

a lot of the fixes that people are finding seem only temporary. So if something works for you, don't shout for joy until you've had a dozen or so successful boots to Windows. What is working for me (notice I didn't say "what worked for me") was going into the BIOS and turning off ("hidden" is the word in the setting) the TPM (Trusted Platform Module). This, on my 2019 HP Spectre x360. So far, so good. Good luck, everyone. 🤞 UPDATE: It seems to be working after multiple restarts.
Dude you have just saved my life! I thought a lot of information was lost. In my case I had to change the Legacy Support to enable, Don´t even know what that means, but helped the laptop work. Thank you a lot!!
Thank you so much. This really helped me with my issue for my HP Envy 360 it had a BOOT DEVICE NOT FOUND PROBLEM. All I did was press F2 and press hard drive test them press quick check and then it may say something like I hard drive or something LAST BIT NOT LEAST turn your laptop off and turn it back on. I PROMISE IT HELPED ME
Nope everything didn’t work. Tried 5 different videos. 7 different websites. Even tried fixing it my self. I’ve spent 3 hours trying to get this thing working again, and I’ve come to a conclusion that my hard drive or port is basically screwed. This has been the most helpful so far but yeah. Guess I can’t fix this one by my self.
Pratik patel I did so I talked to Best Buy and they said the SSD has become unreadable. Basically it’s broken and you have to pay money to get it fixed by a professional. You can’t just plug it in and out you’ll have to get someone to fix it or get a new SSD.
Bought an inexpensive HP revolve 810 g3 in excellent condition with boot problems, thinking I could fix. Struggled with it and then changed to UEFI boot and that was it! Thanks!
This worked for me. I added blue stacks, nox player, arc welder extension to Crome and Cinema HD. It may have reconfigured the bios. I new the OS had to still be on the hard drive.
I found this really frustrating, I was expecting you to run through the options/variables... as you mentioned at the start. Would have been helpful if you gave all the things to test at the start and then the solutions at the end, I got frustrated watching all the waffle in between that did not apply to me so I am now going somewhere else...
I have a more modern hp elitebook laptop with Windows 11 installed but having tried the legacy disable / enable function, in BIOS set up, it still doesn't play ball and it still displays the same Boot Device Not Found Hard Disk (3FO) message.
OMG, I just did something and it worked! I just did what you said. Enable legacy order and disable safe something. And it said do 4049 + Enter then it just magically repaired itself! Thanks to you i didnt waste any money on buying stuff again for my laptop. Thanks!!
You're a genius Thank God for you 🙂 Your way of doing this fixed my hp laptop 💻 and I still have all my writing 📝 from years ago 🙌🏾 Thank you for all your help
Thank u so much sir😊 I just followed ur instructions and boom! My laptop is running good again..I thought I need to buy a new one... Sending love from the Philippines🥰
Thanks may God bless you.... I was so afraid when my laptop displayed that error... I was already planning how to save up some money to repair it.. But hopefully I found this video... I really appreciate it
i was on windows installation loop and i followed your boot order and now proceding with windows thanks dude now our 12 year old loptop working again on a new hard drive
the hard drive passed. I went to boot options changed the legacy support, which in turn changed the secure boot. saved that and now it just says boot devices not found. I know I have to set it to factory setting for Windows 7, but I don't know how to do that without a CD and from the boot device not found screen
You have to reset your partition an volume. If you still need help semd me an email amd Ill send instructions. Hard fix but easy fix if you know the right code in command prompt. If you still need assistance or have questions email me at cocoonhearts@gmail.com
Got to BIOS by pressing f10. Enabled legacy boot enabled...secure boot disabled...and voila!!!! It worked out perfectly!!! Thanks for even your just heads up.
The switching sata ports seemed like such an obvious fix, but my hard drive was being picked up it just couldn't load the windows on it so i didn't think it could be the sata port. Changing the sata cable to a different port seemed to pick up the windows on my hard drive, and now it's working. Thanks!
Thank you! I opened my laptop up to clean it a bit (overheating and loud fan). Turned it back on and said 3F0 error but I hadn't touched the drive or anything (m.2) Was at a lost and had tried a bunch of other solutions and all I had to do was enable legacy mode - doh. Thanks for the vid!

This exact thing happened to me, ran into some problems got blue screen a couple times and ended with this black screen but errors seem to differ every time I try it so my guess is the hard disk died as I heard some weird sounds from it for a while. He's not a manufacturer so u can't expect him to know every single problem, he solved mine and unfortunately not yours. Just act mature and use your brain a little.
Thank you so much, I can fix my Laptop following your instructions, I just need to change the Boot option Legacy to Enabled and ¡back to the action! .Thanks again, greetings from Venezuela.
Thank you for the indepth video. Turns out my built-in m.2 drive on my laptop got loose? Not sure how since it has a shield to portect it but I unplugged and plugged it back in and it works good as new. Good excuse to clean my laptop though since it was a bit dusty. Thanks once again!
Is your pc working fine in legacy, mine works in legacy but when i leave it turned off overnight it just goes back to the same thing again and then i have to set it up again?
@@zzainab6161 well i solved my issue now. The problem was my pc was working in legacy but for some reason after a while it kept losing it's legacy bios setting for some reason and tried to boot in uefi mode. And my hard drive was in mbr so uefi didn't work. So i converted my hard drive to gpt and now i can boot in uefi mode. Since now i have uefi mode i don't think i will be having this problem again.
Thank you! It kept showing me I don't have a hard drive until I unplugged everything from my USB ports, didn't even think of that. No other errors other than that so far. It's weird, I didn't have any problems with it until now
Can you please go in more detail? I have the intermittent problem where it goes into blue screen every 10 minutes or so and after running the quick disk check it says there is no disk installed. What did you do to fix yours?
@@MaxSpider2000 i didn't do anything special. As far as i remember i had to unplug all the USB cables that i had in my laptop, including mouse, keyboard and a cooler, and after that i just restarted it. It was fine after that
Bro... Liked... Subscribed... Bell icon... I could give you a big wet kiss right now man. I was half done installing Ubuntu and had to pull the USB to leave work before starting the install to fit laptop in the bag.... Got home and the laptop was right back on track so I started the install and realized I hadn't plugged the damn .iso usb back in lol.... got this error and The UEFI to Legacy swap fixed me and I'm starting fresh.. Hell yes!! Thank you!! Thought I bricked my baby for a minute.
So my thing passed the memory test ... So what do I do after this step i tried restarting it , and it brings me back to the boot device not found screen
Press f10 and use the right arrow key to go to "system configuration". Next use the down arrow key to go to "boot options" and press enter. Use the down arrow to go to "legacy support" and if it is disabled it needs to be enabled. Click enter and a little popup will come up saying "disabled" or "enabled". Click down to "enabled" and click enter. Then press f10 and enter to save the changes. Your laptop should automatically restart. *I see that this comment is old, but it's still relevant to other viewers and commenters*
I got myself a new laptop and to use some of the programs I needed ubuntu or linux after 3 days of work I finally find the solution thanks. I thought my installation was at fault and reinstalled again and again but it was just my booting option thanks a LOT
Wait, so if the Hard Drive Check says it doesn’t detect a hard drive, I have to determine whether or not it’s the Hard Drive itself or the cable connecting it to the computer that’s dead? How can I tell?
get a different cable. us a different port on the motherboard if you can. swap out the hard drive. if you do those one at a time you will find out what the issue is.
Thank you so much for this video. I did the quick test and it passed but still could not get in. I tried the long test, but the computer just kept shutting off. I went in to system configuration by hitting f10 and found that Legacy Support was disabled and CD/DVD boot was enabled. How does that happen on its own?? I changed them both, saved the changes and turned it off. Restarted and to my surprise, it booted up and I am back in. However, the drive is very scratchy sounding. Don't know if there is still something wrong or not. It is a fairly new solid state drive that replaced the original hard drive in this HP Pavilion. I will give it some time. Thanks again, you saved my day!
I have my laptop working for a day after trying to fix this problem for a week and overnight it does it again 😤 I don't care if it starts working, its going out the window in 24 hours.

I got so scared. My father would kill me
why, it wouldn't be your fault, maybe contact CPS
search hp support and fix your problem
@@a-surfin-bird8182 I know but he blames me without knowing anything beforehand..you know..asian parents
@@mememaster8959 thank God...I fixed it lol
@@swapnamajumder7212 but how. can you tell me
Thank you for the indepth video. Turns out my built-in m.2 drive on my laptop got loose? Not sure how since it has a shield to portect it but I unplugged and plugged it back in and it works good as new. Good excuse to clean my laptop though since it was a bit dusty. Thanks once again!
Hi! Thanks for tris video. When I did the hard drive test it showed “smart check: not installed” and “short DST: not installed”. What can I do then?
did u ever manage to find out? mines is doing the same
Omg thank you so much 😭😭 I did the legacy thing and it actually worked😭 this is the first time a TH-cam tutorial thing actually worked for me
Is your pc working fine in legacy, mine works in legacy but when i leave it turned off overnight it just goes back to the same thing again and then i have to set it up again?
@@SenseiArima11 hey. Mine is kinda like that but it happens when I leave my laptop turned off for like weeks. I guess it's not a permanent solution
@@zzainab6161 well i solved my issue now. The problem was my pc was working in legacy but for some reason after a while it kept losing it's legacy bios setting for some reason and tried to boot in uefi mode. And my hard drive was in mbr so uefi didn't work. So i converted my hard drive to gpt and now i can boot in uefi mode. Since now i have uefi mode i don't think i will be having this problem again.
@@zzainab6161 if you want you can try that as well, but since it looks like you are not having the issue that often. It's probably not necessary
@@SenseiArima11 oh that's great I'm glad you solved it
But when I went on there it only had Memory Test and Storage Tests it didn't have the one you had
ღ Hydrø ღ same someone pls help
press f10
same here
Thank you! It kept showing me I don't have a hard drive until I unplugged everything from my USB ports, didn't even think of that. No other errors other than that so far.
It's weird, I didn't have any problems with it until now
Can you please go in more detail? I have the intermittent problem where it goes into blue screen every 10 minutes or so and after running the quick disk check it says there is no disk installed. What did you do to fix yours?
@@MaxSpider2000 i didn't do anything special. As far as i remember i had to unplug all the USB cables that i had in my laptop, including mouse, keyboard and a cooler, and after that i just restarted it. It was fine after that
Thank you, it worked. I enabled the legacy support as you mentioned and boom!
this worked
thanks
Mine doesn't work when I enable legacy support. What's wrong?
@@xslash6298 same here and my brother's too
Thanks it worked.
Bro... Liked... Subscribed... Bell icon... I could give you a big wet kiss right now man. I was half done installing Ubuntu and had to pull the USB to leave work before starting the install to fit laptop in the bag.... Got home and the laptop was right back on track so I started the install and realized I hadn't plugged the damn .iso usb back in lol.... got this error and The UEFI to Legacy swap fixed me and I'm starting fresh.. Hell yes!! Thank you!! Thought I bricked my baby for a minute.
So my thing passed the memory test ... So what do I do after this step i tried restarting it , and it brings me back to the boot device not found screen
Sadie it’s the hard drive test not memory
Press f10 and use the right arrow key to go to "system configuration". Next use the down arrow key to go to "boot options" and press enter. Use the down arrow to go to "legacy support" and if it is disabled it needs to be enabled. Click enter and a little popup will come up saying "disabled" or "enabled". Click down to "enabled" and click enter. Then press f10 and enter to save the changes. Your laptop should automatically restart.

Mya Johnson thanks it worked just fine
@@luisargenta2401 oh it really works?
@@myajohnson8171 it worked.. thanks alot :)
perfect explanation for people who dont know anything about this topic
You saved the day I thought my hard drive was bad but knew it couldn’t be because other computers saw it.Thank you so much
I got myself a new laptop and to use some of the programs I needed ubuntu or linux after 3 days of work I finally find the solution thanks. I thought my installation was at fault and reinstalled again and again but it was just my booting option thanks a LOT
I restarted my pc and it fixed it. Thank you
I use legacy support, it worked. Thanks man
Wait, so if the Hard Drive Check says it doesn’t detect a hard drive, I have to determine whether or not it’s the Hard Drive itself or the cable connecting it to the computer that’s dead? How can I tell?
get a different cable. us a different port on the motherboard if you can. swap out the hard drive. if you do those one at a time you will find out what the issue is.
Plugging out all USBs helped solve this issue without having to do anything else. So thank you for this video! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Johnny sins tech tips 😂

unrespectful 😐
@@He-s_gone bud that was 2 years ago , let it go 🤣
Thank you so much for this video. I did the quick test and it passed but still could not get in. I tried the long test, but the computer just kept shutting off. I went in to system configuration by hitting f10 and found that Legacy Support was disabled and CD/DVD boot was enabled. How does that happen on its own?? I changed them both, saved the changes and turned it off. Restarted and to my surprise, it booted up and I am back in. However, the drive is very scratchy sounding. Don't know if there is still something wrong or not. It is a fairly new solid state drive that replaced the original hard drive in this HP Pavilion. I will give it some time. Thanks again, you saved my day!
Mine doesn't work when I enable Legacy Support. Can you help me?
Spray some Febreze on that jawn .. Come back 10 minutes later it should be good
haha. I will let him know.
BIOS. Change it so it can also boot from legacy. It worked for me hopefully it works for you too.
I have my laptop working for a day after trying to fix this problem for a week and overnight it does it again 😤 I don't care if it starts working, its going out the window in 24 hours.
I WAS FREAKING OUT, MAN! THE SOLUTION FOR MY LAPTOP WAS TO SIMPLY ENABLE THE LEGACY. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! 🤗🤗🙏🏾🙏🏾
I had just fixed mine too. worked like a charm!!
Thanks for you help! Your instructions were very clear and easy to follow
Enable legacy, take out battery, press start button for 30 seconds, put battery back in, start up. This helped for me
thanks, this video helped me to improve my HP revolve 810, thanks from Georgia,Tbilisi. ;)
Yipeee! Happy birthday to me! You made my day! Thank you!!! 😂🎉
You have the same laptop as me! Except it says Hewlett-Packard under the screen and probably different specs too!
Oh my! You can't believe how this saved my life 😭
Mine has entered infinite booting system...
(the screen where the windows logo is loading up)
