The system may not have automatically recognized a newly
installed device.
See reconfiguration directions in the Solving Hardware
Installation Problems on page 160 section. If the system still
does not recognize the new device, check to see if the device
is listed within Computer Setup. If it is listed, the probable
cause is a driver problem. If it is not listed, the probable cause
is a hardware problem.
If this is a newly installed drive, run the Computer Setup utility
and try adding a POST delay under Advanced > Power-On.
The device is attached to a SATA port that has been disabled
in Computer Setup.
Run the Computer Setup utility and ensure the device's SATA
port is enabled in Storage > Storage Options.
Drive responds slowly immediately after power-up. Run Computer Setup and increase the POST Delay in
Advanced > Power-On Options.

Cause
Solution
The system is trying to start from the hard drive but the hard
drive may have been damaged.
1. Insert a bootable CD or USB device and restart the
computer.
2. Check the hard drive format using fdisk: If NTFS
formatting, use a third party reader to evaluate the drive.
If FAT32 formatting, the hard drive cannot be accessed.
