We're going to need more information than that. What's the exact error message?

Did you install the new hard drive inside the laptop yourself? Did you re-install your operating system (Windows) back on?

Download the diagnostics utility from your hard drive manufacturers website and run it to check the hard disk is ok, if it isnt, you will need to replace the hard disk
