The error says on start-up :
No boot device available -
strike F1 to retry reboot F2 for setup utility
Press F5 to run onboard diagnostics
F1 has never worked and I did diagnostics for 30 minutes and the results said all was good. It said I could do it for another 30 minutes but I decided not to. I figure what caused the problem was that my power when out for a second but it wasn't raining. I have a surge protector on that computer.
When I hit F2 and go under System then Boot Sequence it says that Onboard SATA Hard Drive is (not present). Does this mean the hard drive is broke? I have a one year warranty on this computer but I don't want to lose my 100 gigs worth of steam games and all my other files if the hard drive's broke. If it is can I transfer data between two hard drives with a cable or something?
I've tried unplugging it at least 3 times but no luck with that.
I'm pretty good with files on computers like installing mods on games but not this kind of stuff. I'll provide more info when its needed thanks in advance.
