I have an HP Laptop that originally came with a Windows 8.1. I updated to Windows 10 recently. However, I was working on my laptop and suddenly it shut downed and didn't boot up again. I tried to restore my bios with the firmware provided in HP site, it didn't work. one of my friends suggested to change my bios chip. I changed the bios chip. It booted properly but it was very slow, so I decided to restore it with HP Restore to Factory Setting option (Pressing F11 while booting). It formatted the hard disk and then restarted and it said, "The process stopped". So I tried my HP Recovery Disk, HP Recovery tool said that my Activation code doesn't match. What Should I do?

  • Your description is too vague. What does "I tried to restore my BIOS" mean? What does "I changed it [my BIOS]" mean? Whe you tried to restore "it", is it your OS? And when you tried your recovery disk, what said your activation code doesn't match? A Windows installer? And what was the exact error message? Nov 24, 2015 at 20:31
  • @DavidSchwartz I edited the question. I hope I made it clearer.

  • Put your original BIOS chip back. Nov 24, 2015 at 20:42
  • @DavidSchwartz It doesn't boot. It gets to restart loops.

  • How far does it get in the booting process before it restarts? Details really matter. Nov 24, 2015 at 20:46
