I m still facing the same problem, the new hard drive also detect intermittently, yesterday I updated bios to the new version but the same result .nothing changed

if this is an old laptop i would open the laptop back up and see if it has a removable CMOS battery. if it does replace it with a new one as it may not be able to hold the BIOS settings anymore.

CMOS batteries look like button/watch batteries

finally, I fixed it . I upgrade bios to the new version through bootable pen drive, after that I didn't get the error again

thank you
