Hey everyone, I've been having a problem with a laptop that I brought from my school; It was working perfectly for a few months after I brought it home but a few days after I left the school to go to college the laptop stopped recognizing the internal hard drive. The hard drive is 100% working as I have tested it both on another computer and with SeaTools Diagnostic when It is in the laptop. So SeaTools recognizes it but it is not in the laptops boot menu. When I turn on the laptop the boot order jumps straight to the Network boot and ignored every other device except the DVD drive which I am able to boot from.
UBS pen drives als do not boot but do show up in the BIOS. I used the DVD drive to install ubuntu on the hard drive which finished successfully but after the computer restarts the had drive is again not recognized.
I was thinking that the school might have done something to stop people using the laptops after they leave the school. I have tried to have them help me but they keep refusing.
Can anyone help me with this...
Thank you.
