HP Hard Drive Error 3F0 Boot Device Not Found

[@plonk2plonk]

At last a full & straight forward explanation & demonstration. Many thanks for posting it.

3F0 3F1 3F2 The error is generally that the operating system cannot be found, and sometimes a fresh installation of the operating system can also be resolved. 90% of the 301, 302, and 303 errors are hardware failures and the hard disk needs to be replaced. The situation involving the Optane cache acceleration disk is more complicated, sometimes it is caused by the failure of the Optane acceleration (note: it will also cause data loss). When replacing the hard disk with HDD+Optane cache combination, if the HDD has no hardware failure, it is best to cancel the acceleration cache state in the operating system or BIOS first, and then replace the hard disk. If the acceleration state is not canceled, the hard disk may not be recognized when installing the operating system. (It may be recognized by loading the IRST driver).

How do I do a fresh installation?

It's about time that someone finally gave us a video with a realistic solution to fix this error. There's thousands of other videos stating they have the fix 100% guarantee. This is by far the best explanation I've came across and thank you so much for doing it unedited and raw. Real life problems call for realistic solutions. Thanks again buddy.

Hi. So i loved the way you fixed the ERRO 3FO. However, I facing a similar problem but little different. Erro: "recover after boot failure is enabled but no hard drive boot option is enabled in uefi boot order" on my hp probook 650 laptop. Can you give me a hand on it, please? How can i fixe it?

[@Karloffrules]

Thank you for showing everything . Am still trying to figure out how my HP Diagnostics says that my Hard Drive "passed", but that there is "No Storage Installed". Will try to use HP Diagnostics from their website download to see if it offers more options. I'll be back if I need to install a new SSD. Subscribed.

Bro I'm facing the same issue

[@Karloffrules]

@@BROKEN_GARAGE Haven't had the guts to pull my Envy 17T apart yet,(...am using a refurbished laptop I found a great deal on). When I do, and it will be soon, I will get back. Please let me know if you figure the mystery out. Thanks, and fingers crossed. BTW, mine has one of those Optane + SSD, does yours? Wonder if that it what is causing this result.

Do I need to buy or replace the hard drive?

[@constanceafriye]

I'm facing the same issue, but used ssd pls can u help me😢

[@Silent-1983]

Thank You! I changed the M2 and now there is no bootable image, I can't access the bios, I changed the cmos batteries, and I tried three different M2s. Nothing works!

[@hasinxx]

you need to make a usb flash drive with windows installation media, and boot the computer with that USB to install windows to the empty hard drives you installed

[@smoothsavage2870]

So apparently the only way to resolve this issue without having to wipe the computer with a fresh install is by being able to legacy boot. Problem with that is that certain BIOS settings do not have this. And you cant rollback the BIOS to older versions. Now im forced to lose my data smh.

[@sci-factmysticland826]

It happens when Any BIOS settings get changed automatically... Or due to Any Hardware problem

[@neilbilston5065]

Piece of shit HP Laptop with no CMOS battery! Battery goes flat and the bios settings revert back to default! Not many people out there know how to reset up the bios.
