The hard drive on the HP desktop PC will not boot into windows or freeze up while trying to load up, other times I will turn on the computer and it will just sit there, no activity light for the HD.

I have removed the hard drive and tried it on another computer. The hard drive is accessible, but I am wondering if I need to replace the hard drive or I can somehow save the hard drive and get windows working properly again?

Tried to boot the HP computer without the HDD, no display on the monitor. Thought I might try putting the HDD in an older computer that works see if it boots.

*Windows will boot into recovery then freeze while trying to complete recovery mode, system restore point non working as well. Is this looking like a HDD problem?
