If your HDD is encrypted and if you cannot start your computer and if you cannot bypss this black screen, there is not much that can be done with regards to data recovery other than recovery of the data from back-up.

The only way to disable and stop encryption or preboot authentication screen is once you are in Windows. If this was possible, this would have been a severe security issue because one could potentially bypass this security feature. I am afraid there is no way for you to disable HP drive encryption on boot.
