HP2000 with Windows 8, won't boot past the hp logo, or goes to black screen

[rutanmike79]

Everything was fine yesterday except running somewhat slow, so I shut it down. When I tried to turn it back on, it sticks on the hp logo indefinitely. Sometimes it says that it is starting a repair, but same issue, hangs on the hp logo and then to a black screen.
I have tried the removing the battery, holding down the power button, and then restarting without the battery. I have tried running the diagnostics and it fails on the battery and one of the hard drive checks. I'm trying to figure out how to run a chdsk on it, but I can't get it to boot to dos.
I have also tried to run an installation disk, but it asks to boot from cd/dvd, and goes right back to the hanging hp logo when you hit the key.
I've tried everything that I can think of and would appreciate any suggestions.

You check the Hp Web site to see the error code?

It never gives an error, just hangs. The HP site from what I can tell recommends running chdsk because of the hard drive failure, but I can't get anywhere that it will run.
