    I get a screen
    -Start up repair (recommended)
    -Start normally

    Try to start normaly but goes an does the blue screen brings me back to the two options

    Command Prompt at Startup OPTION ONE.
    Now in command prompt do:

    Code:
    diskpart
    list  vol
    exit
    Now you know drive letters of the disks. They can be different as in normal win7!

    To check the disks for errors
    Code:
    chkdsk/f  c:
    chkdsk/f  d:
    and so on
    Post results. I think "startup repair" was still busy checking the disk or froze during that step

    What is on blue screen? Use Advanced Boot Options -> "Disable Automatic Restart on System Failure" to let it stay on screen!

    His PC will not start.

    Boot into BIOS setup by one of the methods shown in BIOS Setup Information and Menu Options | HP® Support. See if the HD is still listed under Storage devices and in the BIOS Boot order. It may be listed by its serial number which you can google to find it's maker to run HD Diagnostic in addition to Disk Check from the System Recovery Options Command Line.

    Once HD checks out work through these steps for Troubleshooting Windows 7 Failure to Start.

    Windows error Recovery
    Windows failed to start. A recent Hardware or software change might be the cause

    two option
    Lunch start up repair
    start windows normally

    If i do repair it goes to a screen that is white an has some grey in it on the right of the screen no letters no nothing just a blank screen. no box pops up for the recovery part.

    Advanced Boot Options
    Then select "Disable Automatic Restart on System Failure". What happens after normal boot now?

    Have you started on these steps yet? Why was there no response to them but just restating your problem? You'll need to follow the steps for us to even know what is wrong. Use the WIn7 installer DVD or flash stick provided to do the repairs which require it, not the Repair which should autostart from Win7 and obviously is not working.

    See if HP diagnostics will run from boot by pressing the ESC or F9 key at boot.

    If not run the HD maker's HD diagnostics linked earlier. If you don't know the HD brand then run Partition Wizard bootable CD Partition surface test or Seagate Seatools DOS CD scan, burning either ISO to CD using WIndows Image Burner.
