Disk failure please help !

[mayaruth04]

Ok guys so earlier in the week I was cleaning my cpu. I didn’t put thermal paste on and my pc monitor said no signal and my keyboard and mice was unresponsive. But I got thermal paste today and I put it on my cpu. My monitor was then connected to my pc but the screen said this-
PCI devices listing
Bus dev fun vendor device svid ssid class device class
-A lot of numbers-
Boot from cd/dvd:
Boot from cd/dvd:
Disk boot failure, insert system disk and press enter
But I cannot press enter because my keyboard is not responsive. And I also have no “disk.” Someone please help !

Have you checked the cables going from motherboard to hard drive? If it was working prior to you tinkering inside, it's probably just a loose cable. Check inside and make sure everything is connected properly.

Other than that, BIOS may have reverted to default values and is trying to boot from CD/DVD drive instead of boot drive.

did you run the cpu with no thermal paste? did you run it with no heatsink as well?

 

[mayaruth04]

I ran it with no thermal paste a few times.

 

[13thmonkey]

precisely what cpu? and you definitely used a heatsink?

 

[mayaruth04]

Um it’s a pc I got from a friend so idk what cpu and yeah I defintley used a heat sink.

 

[mayaruth04]

I’ve been reading, should I reset the cmos ?

 

[13thmonkey]

well, yes and no, there's no way that anything you've describe should cause you to have to reset the cmos. So my thought is that you damaged the CPU. In bios are you seeing the disks at all?

 

[mayaruth04]

What do you mean the disks?

What do you mean the disks?

 

[13thmonkey]

when you are in bios, does it list your HDD's anywhere. I'm trying to ascertain if the mobo can even detect the disks, if not the a cmos reset will do nothing.

 

[mayaruth04]

This is what it said. I’m scared to turn it back on.

It doesn’t seem to work just copy and paste then you’ll see.

 

[13thmonkey]

if you don't turn it back on you'll know nothing

 

[mayaruth04]

I’m at Walmart running errands rn so I thought I’d show you the picture.

 

[13thmonkey]

you need to get into bios

 

[mayaruth04]

How if my keyboard and mouse aren’t responsive ?

 

[13thmonkey]

do the cmos reset then

 

[mayaruth04]

I will do it when I’m home. Any tips on how?

 

[13thmonkey]

you need to find out what the mobo is. generally remove the battery for 5mins but you may need to move a jumper to make a connection for a second or two.

 

[mayaruth04]

Oh boy

 

[mayaruth04]

Where can I find the jumper? I found clr_cmos but no jumper is on there. Do I have to buy one?

 

[mayaruth04]

Ok so I reseated the battery because I didn’t have a jumper. The keyboard and mouse lit up and then turned back off but this time I get no signal. Ugh. I’m about to just give up.

I got it fixed the power plug wasn’t connected to the hard drive 😛
