Please follow the Standard Litany when asking a question:
• What was your environment? What was your operating system, configuration?
• What did you do? What did you run or test? Where?
• What actually happened? What were the exact results, complete log contents, exact error messages?
• What did you expect? What were you aiming to achieve? What result were you looking for?

Vague or superficial questions will yield vague or superficial answers. False information leads to false solutions.

Also see this similar guide on how to ask smart questions.

When requesting support, please include specific, detailed, and relevant information about your system and issue.

We need such information because we don't know what it's like inside your system, and it's unlikely that we know much about the issue you're facing. The more information you can provide, the better we can help you with your specific issue.

Some examples of frequently requested information include the steps you took before your issue occurred (such as system updates), the steps you took to resolve your issue and their results, and your environment (such as your display manager or desktop environment).

Vague or superficial questions lead to vague or superficial answers. False information leads to false solutions.

  1. My operating system is Arch. DE is Plasma and WM is kwin.
    Boot-loader is GRUB. (My motherboard supports UEFI and UEFI is working)
  2. Booted up my PC but couldn't get into my Arch installation.
  3. When i tried booting up my pc after installation, this was all that was displayed on the screen: "Attempting To Boot From Hard Drive".
  4. I was trying to install Arch with Wayland as my DS and KDE Plasma as my DE; And was expecting it all to work as I have installed Arch on my notebook before and my PC and notebook are similar in specs.

i checked my hp setup utility thingy and legacy boot was enabled... i disabled it and reinstalled grub:
mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
mkdir /mnt/boot/efi
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi
arch-chroot /mnt
grub-install --removable --target=x86_64-efi --bootloader-id=ArchLinux --efi-directory=/boot
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
exit
umount /mnt
shutdown now

but to my dismay, it still didn't work :|
