what happened was I was trying to a fix my video card because it was loose like knocked off the SATA cables and it kept saying after I put everything in there is no bootable bootable device detected so which SATA cable port is the right one for the HDD.











 
What motherboard do you have?

Usually a system can boot from any sata port, but you may need to select the HDD in the BIOS (boot sequence). Also, if one of your sata connectors is a different color than the rest then plug the HDD into that one (i.e. one is grey and the rest are blue or black).
