Pavilion dv6: I did now the hard drive on my HDD test failed and the pavilion dv6

The problem is that my laptop when I start it it takes like 10-15 minutes to load.

I see loading windows xp logo and then he is suspended for more then 10 minutes or more.

Now, I tried to do a test for the material. I turn on the laptop and click the F2 key and I entered the test screen of hp hardware. I moved start test drive hard and after 5-10 seconds or if stopped with a test failure:

That's what I see now on the screen of the laptop:

Test Drive: 1

INTELLIGENT control: PAST

DST short: FAILURE

FAILURE ID: 64WE1A-5BC7Q7-XD003F - 60Q 903

PRODUCT ID: XE041EA #ABT

Hard drive 1

Edit:

I tried now all the other tests in the F2 screen, and they all went except the short DST hard drive that has failed.

Better to buy a new hard drive and replace it with this one and I install the new OS on it own?

Test drive: FAILURE

Does that mean ID failure? I need to replace with a new hard drive? If so can I buy a new hard drive and replace it only with myself?

I did no other reviews but I want to first of all understand what it means to id of failure.

Hello

The hard drive is faulty defiantly and Yes should not replace. Failure ID is given, so if your laptop is under warranty you can give this to HP and it will then allow you the replacement

Usually the instructions on how to replace the hard drive are in the manual of your computer that you will be able to get a copy on the HP site. You can also buy the HP installation media which will be operating system files on your for reinstall on the new hard drive.
