I tried to reboot in disk utility. I repaired and it said HHD could not be repaired.
Backup your data if you not done so already and purchase a replacement and install same.
ciao.
is there any whay to fix it
Not if it is physically damaged. When Disk Utility fails to repair it, then usually there is a physical problem.

Hold option command and r keys down near your Internet connection and reboot the machine
It's going to show a gloaby thing and load Internet Recovery from Apple servers, from that you should be able to repair the entire drive if you select it.
Backup your data off the machine to a external drive as soon as possible because either the drive is failing or there are bad sectors cuasing our problem and you'll need to wipe everything and reinstall everything.
It's possible you have directory damage and you should not use your computer until the damage has been repaired by a 3rd party utility.
DiskWarrior Highly recommended for *directory damage* repairs.
TechTool Pro Multi-functional utility.
Drive Genius Multi-functional utility.
The problem is fixed
I rebooted in disk utility and it fixed the problem that it couldn't fix earlier.
Thx
