Hi, welcome to the forum!
When you boot the system and get the black screened menu that Windows didn't start correctly, try choosing the method that says something along the lines of using the last known good configuration, and see if that makes a difference.
If that doesn't work, you might have to boot up in Safe Mode and uninstall the HP drivers/software.
