Hello Mona6690, welcome to Vista Forums.





Have a look at the text below to see if you are able to restore from the factory recovery partition, if it doesn't setup the first try, try it several times.
Be sure to keep us informed as to your progress.

Be advised that this will take the machine back to the point when you first took it of the box.
The "HP Recovery Center" will give you the option to send to backup anything you
don't want to lose, so have backup media available to use if you choose this option.

With the machine off press the power button, as soon as you do that start tapping the F11 key.
It may take several attempts to do this, if the first attempt fails, try again.
That should take you to the HP Recovery Center. When there just follow the prompts.
It is pretty much self explanatory. From the time you boot into F11 (not counting
any backups you choose to make) you should be back on a working desktop in about
30 minutes. After it restarts just follow the prompts again to finish the process.

If your first option is system restore select no, which should take you to system recovery.
You want to try system recovery not system restore, unless you have good restore points!

Hi,

Thanks for quick reply. I have tried few time to restore to factory default, but still remains same. As my display comes with few lines, can display card be root cause of the issue (but diagnostics don't show any display card issue)?


thanks,
