Thanks for watching! Please consider subscribing to my new channel here: www.youtube.com/@jamminpcs. I'm trying to move the easier hardware stuff there so that I can focus on the more in depth troubleshooting and diagnostic videos here :)
Dude! You are the greatest! Spent about a week trying to self diagnose my blue screen and didn’t even think about reseating the SSD. Problem solved! Thank you thank you!!!!
You’re a life saver. My work computer was doing this and it turned out the culprit was a wireless mouse USB. Once I removed and restarted, it worked perfectly.
Man ,this was so helpful .Thankyou so much. I got no hard disk found,then i reseated according to your instructions and after that it passed all quick tests.after that i went and did system recovery and at last finally my laptop started.. its so good that i found this videos thanks a. Bunch
I keep my Windows 7 PC on usually but decided to reboot it for a "fresh start" But it would not boot but, kept coming back to the window where you either boot normally or : "Last known configuration that worked" (something like that). Couldn't even get into safe mode. I thought it was the hard drive, power supply or motherboard. It recognized my secondary hard drive that had an old install of Windows XP and, in my desperation, I tried to boot from that drive but, no dice. So, I disconnected the power from that drive but, it still didn't recognize the OS on my boot drive. I searched TH-cam and found your video. When one of your tips was to check the time in the BIOS, I noticed it was off by 3 days so, I changed the CMOS battery and, it booted. Thanks so much for your help.
Man 😭😭😭😭😭 You can't even comprehend what you just did for me I seriously thought my whole work is gone or maybe needing to pay to fix this Thank you very much 👍👍👍
Preciate u bra. Unplugging my printer usb worked for me but i have waaaay too many work files to lose so im ordering a new laptop right now and transferring everything.
I wish I could hug you right now I’m not good with computers but you have made it possible for me to fix mine I couldn’t sleep last night I’m in my final year and I have my research project on the pc I was really scared I even thought I won’t graduate this year now I will Thank you so much
Thank you so much!!! You just saved me some anxiety. Went to see about my TPM so I could upgrade to windows 11 and accidently changed a boot setting and got this error and thought all was lost.
Amazing bro unsitting solved mine you are a genius when i touched my hard drive it seems. Something was not connecting right and it fixed it saved me abunch of cash.
Hi! In my case the computer doesn't read any boot system. Even if i try to install a new os. The harddrive is working properly in another laptop with os on it. But usb bootable an os install can not be load.
@@09_samarpanbasu7 Check the BIOS, there are 2 boot modes Legacy and UEFI. Try switching to the one that is not selected or select UEFI Hybrid if available.
Dude thank you very much. Just had the same problem with my girlfriends Laptop. We just had to set the Harddrive again and it worked. Thanks for your help 🙏
Can you calibrate as seen here? th-cam.com/video/DmZdTTUsGRM/w-d-xo.html. Was your HP computer turning on and working well before this battery replacement?
Man my hard rive was working fine, but i stumbled upon a problem and opened a video to fix it and it made me change and clean disks. I really underestimated how dangerous that is. Can you help me or is it over for alk my files in the laptop? 😢
Hi, thrilled to find your channel. I have an HP Notebook 15 and can't get back cover off to reseat hard drive. Removed 4 screws visible on back cover, then 2 more visible after battery was removed. What am I missing? Thanks!
Thanks for your video. So when I try to system restore (F11) it goes straight back to the error screen “no boot disk” etc? I’ve reset the boot options to default in BIOS and made sure my hard drive is at the top of my boot order. Also I only have option for UEFI and not legacy so I cannot enable legacy instead. Any advice please??
Hi! I'm having an issue where when I do run the Hard Drive / SSD tests, the computer outputs that i have "No hard drive installed. Please check that the power and data cables are connected properly." My computer is plugged in while this occurs. Do you think this is a hardware issue and the hard drive popped out?
Remember to check the FAQ's on my videos! It could save you time getting an answer to common questions :) If the diagnostic test shows your HDD to not be installed, that means your HDD may be loose or bad. Try 'Reseating' the HDD first as seen here in this video. Try the diagnostic test again. If it fails to change the scan, I would then replace the HDD and install an Operating System to the new one.

Hi! I hope the message finds u well. I need to open the back of my 2000 series hp laptop - removing externally plugged in devices and enabling the Legacy did not work this time. Will u help me? 😢 Thanks
Hi! I was working on my HP 360 last night and all was fine. I had noticed that my laptop prompted me to download/install a windows update. I did and hit the "update and shutdown button". Cue to today, I turn on my computer to find the issue stating "Boot device not found" in your video. I went through the steps, did the quick scans (everything passed), and attempted to configure the BIOs. Two things I will comment were off though: 1) When I attempted to hit F12 or System Recovery, as stated in your video, it took me back to the main "Boot Device is not found" message. 2) I have not attempted reseating the hard drive. The HP 360 backing is a pain to open up. I can attempt to reseat the hard drive trouble shoot fix and come back with a reply to see if that works. Unfortunately, I work on my laptop and worried that all my files are doomed. Are they salvageable? Would need to buy a new hard drive and take it to a computer store to transfer data THEN reinstall OS? Thank you for your time and help! -Eddy
If the Restore or Repair steps are not helping, then I would try a new install of the operating system. Yes, there is a chance you could lose DATA if you dont perform the new install correctly and choose the options to keep all your files. Its up to you if you want to try or take the HDD somewhere to have them see if they can get the DATA off assuming its ok.
This video was really helpful but unfortunately I think I might have a bad hard drive. I tried all of your tips but am left with a screen that says ‘Reboot and Select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key’… do you happen to know what this means?
I think my hard drive is bad.I did the Storage test and tested my hard drive and it said "no hard drive installed. Please check that the power and data cables are connected properly".Can you tell me what this means?

thank you for the video. I tried upgrading my HP Elitebook 8470p from a HHD to a SSD. I cloned the HHD to the SSD, upon booting I received a "no boot device found" error. I played around with the bios settings but no luck. I put the HHD back in and received the same error. I ran a hard drive diagnostic and passed the "Smart check" and "Short DST" . I checked the boot sequence and it shows the "notebook hard drive" is selected as my first boot option. I reset the bios to defaults as well. at this point i'm unsure, I may just have to reinstall windows. Any ideas?
@PC Monkey I grabbed a working ssd from another pc and it booted just fine. I just wanted to confirm it wasnt my motherboard. Maybe some type of glitch while cloning. Luckily I backed up all data and just need to transfer it over. Thanks again for your help! Liked and subbed
The last hard drive I had got a boot loop, and after trying many methods it worked for a few hours and died shortly after. Problem: So I got a new hard drive about a month before this and installed it. And since yesterday, the hp notebook I have it installed on got stuck on the hp logo screen so I did a short dst for hard drive and it failed. But I don’t think it’s a problem with the hard drive dying since it’s new
@@OnigiriKyoko If the diagnostic test is failing the HDD then its either bad or there is a connection issue. You should double check the connecting ribbon cables or boards to make sure they are good
1. Assuming you have an HP computer giving you a No Boot Device error at startup, can you run the diagnostic test as seen here? 2. Also, did anything happen before this? Overheating, liquid spill, Windows update, etc?
I reminded that hdd drive is ok with os on it that works on another computer. Any usb bootable or hdd os system can not be read. The problem is with the computer. But i can not fix it. Or find where the problem from. The computer is hp mini 311-1000 model
Hello, I got to replace my faulty SSD in my HP Envy x360 convertible. After replacing the SSD I got a 3FO error. The UEFI boot order prioritises the former SSD drive. Can you please guide me on sorting out this? thanks!!

So I have a question about this topic I’ve had this happen to me yesterday to my beats hp laptop & was wondering how to fix this issue? thanks. Also how do you put your hard drive to be first on the boot list?
1. Assuming you have an HP computer, can you run the diagnostic scan as seen here? Are you able to access the boot order as seen here? That is where you would change the HDD to the first place. 2. Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?
Thank You! I changed the M2 and now there is no bootable image, I can't access the bios, I changed the cmos batteries, and I tried three different M2s. Nothing works!

Hi, I have an HP notebook from 2015. Worked perfectly then crashed on me in the middle of the day yesterday when it got hit where the hard drive is. Got the blue screen at first, then the boot device not found black screen. I tried unplugging the hard drive and putting it back in as well as doing legacy boot mode but it’s still coming up the same.

Hi..i had the same problem..and i went outside, where they added ssd 128gb in which os has been installed now but still my hardisk came with laptop was not detected..i have all my data in that..can you please help me out
Would you be able to help with a problem I'm having. I have a HP Probook I used at an old job. I was made redundant and was allowed to keep the pc. But I hadn't used it for a long time and couldn't remember my login credentials. I then searched on youtube for ways to get around not knowing my login credentials but they all involved BIOS changes, and I also don't know the BIOS Admin password or the Recovery ID code. I then followed some more complex steps involving DISKPART and now my PC is screwed. When I start it I get the 'BootDevice Not Found' message, I can run the checks and my hard drive Passes, however anything that requires any sort of change, BIOS Setup, Boot Menu, System Restore, anything at all, brings me to the BIOS Admin password screen and thats a dead end. I have the Windows 11 USB but if I can't get into the Boot Menu then it won't know to access it will it?? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Hey i have a hp630 laptop i want to upgrade it from hdd to ssd i purchased ssd and installed it in the laptop and it says that hard disk not detected then i installed the ssd in another hp laptop and installed windows on it works just fine then i again installed the ssd in the main laptop and go to windows setup and there i can see a unallocated drive i tried allocate it and got a error do you have any solution for this ??
PC_Monkey, please help me! I suspect that my problem is operating system related because I’ve done most of the other things in the video and my problem began after last night when I updated my PC before going to bed. I wanted to try to uninstall the last windows update like you explained in the video so that I don’t have to completely reinstall the operating system, but when I press F12 I don’t have a “SupportAssist OS Recovery” button and I don’t see anything similar to choose. Can you give any explanation to why this is and if there’s any way for me to go about this? Btw, my PC says it has BIOS version 1.13.0 and I have an “Alienware Aurora R15 AMD.” I’m not sure if this is important as I believe Alienware is owned by Dell so they should work similarly?
What if i have installed an SSD, proved it boots in a different PC, there is no legacy boot mode since HP stopped legacy support. HW scan found nothing wrong with the system or SSD
I’m trying to reseat my hard drive but I can’t get the bottom panel off. My laptop is an hp 15-dw300. I’m only seeing 2 screws at the front of the laptop, when I take them out the bottom panel isn’t any looser and there’s no obvious seams to try and pry apart.
I'm getting the boot up message that the Boot Device is not found, but the keyboard does not work. The power button on the keyboard is blinking and will not turn the computer off, so I can't do anything. I ran all of the tests, the only thing showing up is boot device not found in the storage tests.
1. If your keyboard is not working, try using an external keyboard to get through the steps. 2. That means your HDD may be loose or bad. Try 'Reseating' the HDD first as seen here in this video.

Could really use your help! Or anyone's help really. So my computer has been booting up just fine and I was even playing games and doing things on it today. However in the middle of playing games I noticed one of my applications had closed and I didnt remember closing it. I had a game open and was playing it and also had chrome open. I went to reopen the application that was closed- it would start up and then never open. I then tried opening task manager: I would see it for a bit and then that would close. I figured i'd restart my computer at this point after my game, which I did. After it restarted it suddenly said Boot Device Not Found/Hard Disk - 3FO and whatnot. After running tests my ATA 1000GB drive is fine, but my NVMe 256GB TOSHIBA is the one having issues and does not pass the smart check. Can someone explain to me what the NVMe drive is exactly and what I should do?
6 days ago I've got an error in laptop saying "Your Windows Insider Build ran into a problem and needs to restart. We're just collecting some error info and then you can restart." And it start showing BSOD in laptop I tried a lot of steps to sort it out but I was unable to do that. Then I took a Sandisk Cruzer Blade 16GB pendrive and I made that pendrive as bootable by using an Android application called "ISO2USB" by downloading the Windows 10 ISO file and I tried to install new Windows I did everything which required to do that installation process but still I'm getting the "No bootable device found " everytime. 😢 If you can please help me solve this issue.

I have a problem where I ONLY get the "no hard drive found" when I RESTART from Windows. If I power down completely and then power up, it starts no problem. It's a brand new Samsung 870 EVO SSD cloned from the original hdd. I had this same issue with a new WD Blue SSD on another laptop, and eventually it stopped powering up altogether after a few months. It's not a BIOS or reading, or even connection issue. I can reinstall the old HDD and it will work flawlessly. I used the same cloning software for a Samsung 990 PRO NVME M.2 on a third HP laptop with no problem. I've tried Samsung Magician, AOMEI Backupper and a dual-dock hard drive reader with independant cloning capability with same results.
I have a HP 15-dw1083wm with a 128GB x600 M.2 and it was dead and is booting to the logon screen but without options. It says that your pin is no longer valid you need to change pin and need internet to do this. However, I can't get to windows to hook up to internet. I try the recovery USB, but it is not working. I went to bios set up and enable the USB boot but still doesn't recognize it. The USB ports seem to be dead.
Were you able to run the HP diagnostic test? Were you able to enter BIOS at all and look for any Recovery or Repair options? Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?
Ive tried multiple steps through this video and the old one you've posted a couple years ago. Nothing seems to have worked. It still says it doesnt have a hard drive installed after doing the steps and checking through the faqs. I tried just a moment ago to try and reseat the hard drive manually but it seems the back of my laptop cant or wont come off. It has honestly made me want to start crying because this has never happened before and i lost my little 2tb hard drive i use to back up my stuff. I tried both the new charger i bought today and the other one, still getting the error. I even contacted hp and they ghosted me pretty much. I an sorry for the rant but i dont know what to do and cant afford another laptop or hard drive right now.. any and all advice will be appreciated.

Water spilled on my laptop now it shows no bootable device found. There is also no Legacy support button available, no hard drive check. What should I do?
After a liquid spill, you want to first make sure the computer is 100% dry. You would turn your computer off immediately by pressing and holding the power button until the computer turns off. Then you would disassemble the computer as much as your comfortable with, at least trying to remove the bottom case. Then you would turn it on its side and let dry for a couple days. Have you done this yet or are you sure the computer is dry?

After i did a bios update my hp laptop does not start. It also says bootdevice not found. Get a screen where i with the arrow keys can select to boot up. It asks if i am sure ? Select yes and then it can find the boot device. It is a m2 ssd. It is very annoying because i have it under my desk with brackets. So everytime i have to disconnect everything. Crawl under the desk. Open it and use the laptop keyboard. Because the external logitec only works after bootup. Wished i never did that bios update. It is a G3 17 inch with a Xenon.
Yes :( Messing with BIOS can mess computer up in many cases unfortunately :( Were you able to run this diagnostic test? Can you access BIOS at all and find any options to Restore to Factory Settings?
@@PC_Monkey Getting into the bios is not a problem. But while powering up it does not see a bootdevice. After a bios update. And that is horrible. Cause i have installed with brackets under desk. So everytime i have to crawl under it. Unplug everything and slide it out the brackets. Power it up. And then putting it back in the brackets and reconnect everything. 🤔 I have choosen a 5 s bootdelay in the bios. Now it boots ok. I keep that hp laptop always on. But now if it powers down or reboots then atleast it will boot up as it should. No crawling under my desk again. I have bought a second hand docking station. Have it connected by thunderbolt. It can not power the laptop. Should it be used icw with another cable ? I also see a round port on the laptop next to thunderbolt. Same connector on the dockingstation. So i think i need a thunderbolt cable that also has a cable with that round connector ? ? Any idea ?

The hard drive test ran and was successful, but I can't run the storage diagnostics test, it's telling me storage not installed, and I have no idea how to open my laptop (it's a hp pavilion gaming)

I keep my Windows 7 PC on usually but decided to reboot it for a "fresh start" But it would not boot but, kept coming back to the window where you either boot normally or : "Last known configuration that worked" (something like that). Couldn't even get into safe mode. I thought it was the hard drive, power supply or motherboard. It recognized my secondary hard drive that had an old install of Windows XP and, in my desperation, I tried to boot from that drive but, no dice. So, I disconnected the power from that drive but, it still didn't recognize the OS on my boot drive. I searched TH-cam and found your video. When one of your tips was to check the time in the BIOS, I noticed it was off by 3 days so, I changed the CMOS battery and, it booted. Thanks so much for your help.

Hi! I was working on my HP 360 last night and all was fine. I had noticed that my laptop prompted me to download/install a windows update. I did and hit the "update and shutdown button".
Cue to today, I turn on my computer to find the issue stating "Boot device not found" in your video. I went through the steps, did the quick scans (everything passed), and attempted to configure the BIOs. Two things I will comment were off though:
1) When I attempted to hit F12 or System Recovery, as stated in your video, it took me back to the main "Boot Device is not found" message.
2) I have not attempted reseating the hard drive. The HP 360 backing is a pain to open up.
I can attempt to reseat the hard drive trouble shoot fix and come back with a reply to see if that works. Unfortunately, I work on my laptop and worried that all my files are doomed. Are they salvageable? Would need to buy a new hard drive and take it to a computer store to transfer data THEN reinstall OS?
Thank you for your time and help!
-Eddy
If the Restore or Repair steps are not helping, then I would try a new install of the operating system. Yes, there is a chance you could lose DATA if you dont perform the new install correctly and choose the options to keep all your files. Its up to you if you want to try or take the HDD somewhere to have them see if they can get the DATA off assuming its ok.

thank you for the video. I tried upgrading my HP Elitebook 8470p from a HHD to a SSD. I cloned the HHD to the SSD, upon booting I received a "no boot device found" error. I played around with the bios settings but no luck. I put the HHD back in and received the same error. I ran a hard drive diagnostic and passed the "Smart check" and "Short DST" . I checked the boot sequence and it shows the "notebook hard drive" is selected as my first boot option. I reset the bios to defaults as well. at this point i'm unsure, I may just have to reinstall windows. Any ideas?
Yes :( Unfortunately at this point, I would try a new install and see if that works.

I’m thinking it could be a hard drive connection issue so I’ll probably check that in a moment

Hi..i had the same problem..and i went outside, where they added ssd 128gb in which os has been installed now but still my hardisk came with laptop was not detected..i have all my data in that..can you please help me out
Would you be able to help with a problem I'm having. I have a HP Probook I used at an old job. I was made redundant and was allowed to keep the pc. But I hadn't used it for a long time and couldn't remember my login credentials. I then searched on youtube for ways to get around not knowing my login credentials but they all involved BIOS changes, and I also don't know the BIOS Admin password or the Recovery ID code. I then followed some more complex steps involving DISKPART and now my PC is screwed. When I start it I get the 'BootDevice Not Found' message, I can run the checks and my hard drive Passes, however anything that requires any sort of change, BIOS Setup, Boot Menu, System Restore, anything at all, brings me to the BIOS Admin password screen and thats a dead end. I have the Windows 11 USB but if I can't get into the Boot Menu then it won't know to access it will it?? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

PC_Monkey, please help me!
I suspect that my problem is operating system related because I’ve done most of the other things in the video and my problem began after last night when I updated my PC before going to bed.
I wanted to try to uninstall the last windows update like you explained in the video so that I don’t have to completely reinstall the operating system, but when I press F12 I don’t have a “SupportAssist OS Recovery” button and I don’t see anything similar to choose.
Can you give any explanation to why this is and if there’s any way for me to go about this?
Btw, my PC says it has BIOS version 1.13.0 and I have an “Alienware Aurora R15 AMD.” I’m not sure if this is important as I believe Alienware is owned by Dell so they should work similarly?
What was the result of the HP diagnostic scan?

So my computer has been booting up just fine and I was even playing games and doing things on it today. However in the middle of playing games I noticed one of my applications had closed and I didnt remember closing it. I had a game open and was playing it and also had chrome open. I went to reopen the application that was closed- it would start up and then never open. I then tried opening task manager: I would see it for a bit and then that would close. I figured i'd restart my computer at this point after my game, which I did.
After it restarted it suddenly said Boot Device Not Found/Hard Disk - 3FO and whatnot.
After running tests my ATA 1000GB drive is fine, but my NVMe 256GB TOSHIBA is the one having issues and does not pass the smart check. Can someone explain to me what the NVMe drive is exactly and what I should do?
6 days ago I've got an error in laptop saying "Your Windows Insider Build ran into a problem and
needs to restart. We're just collecting some error info
and then you can restart."
And it start showing BSOD in laptop I tried a lot of steps to sort it out but I was unable to do that.
Then I took a Sandisk Cruzer Blade 16GB pendrive and I made that pendrive as bootable by using an Android application called "ISO2USB" by downloading the Windows 10 ISO file and I tried to install new Windows I did everything which required to do that installation process but still I'm getting the "No bootable device found " everytime. 😢
If you can please help me solve this issue.
1. Assuming you have an HP computer, can you run the diagnostic test as seen here?
2. Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Overheating, liquid spill, Windows update, etc?
@@PC_Monkey @PC_Monkey yeahhh I've all the diagnosis as shown here extensive diagnostic, fast diagnostic, memory, storage all that and everything is passed and fine no issues were found while doing that.
But I'm unable to turn on my PC.
Before this problem occurs I've updated some Windows updates but I'm not sure what causing the issue.
System recovery option worked for me 😊
I am currently experiencing this issue.
I have a Hp elite x2 1012 g2
I have tried to run hard drive check and it’s still showing no hard drive installed. What do I do next.
I am so confused, please help me
If your diagnostic test cannot see your HDD, that means its either bad or loose. I would first try 'reseating' the Hard Drive. You can see that done here in this updated video: th-cam.com/video/lKb2pPQrkRk/w-d-xo.html
Bro i watched a video to change my legacy boot to uefi firmware sittings and my laptop doesn’t work any thing for solving that problem?
1. Assuming you have an HP computer, how does it not work? What is happening?
2. Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?
@@PC_Monkey all are fine now thank you ☺️ and well i dont know i got fooled by one of youtube videos that gave me fake information about how to change from legacy to csm i don’t really remember i dis all steps and then laptop fucked up lol

Hi mate, I have a Hp g7 255 I’ve replaced the sdd but says no bootable device I’ve tried all you’re vids but no luck
Was the computer working well before the SSD replacement? If not, what was happening? Also, did you install an OS to the new SSD after install as seen here?

Can you try the steps seen here? th-cam.com/video/gDQZvNQ2chc/w-d-xo.html. Can you find any Repair or Recovery options in BIOS?
What happens when while following you, I don't have where you check the " hard drive? Only has storage and memory.
HDD is the same as Storage :)
When I performed a diagnostic hardware check on my laptop, it displayed a smart check and short DST Not Available. I then unplugged and replugged the hard drive, but the problem not solved . What should I do? 😭
Sounds like you should replace the HDD :( You can see examples here: www.amazon.com/shop/pcmonkey/list/151Q0TXYMND7O?ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_d
I had same issue with my laptop but my hard drives were fine but mother board is not detecting any and giving a 3F0 error. In the diagnostics it shows no hardware device avaialable and doesn't allow to install new OS. I get it checked from the local market they are saying its a motherboard issue they will try to repair it but its may lead to dead mother board. Hoping that it will repaired.
If the diagnostic test shows your HDD to not be installed, that means your HDD may be loose or bad. Try 'Reseating' the HDD first as seen here in this video. Try the diagnostic test again. If it fails to change the scan, I would then replace the HDD and install an Operating System to the new one. You can see how to do that here;

Thanks for these great computer-fix tips. 🙂
Thx for the great comments Rhonda :)
I have a problem where I ONLY get the "no hard drive found" when I RESTART from Windows. If I power down completely and then power up, it starts no problem. It's a brand new Samsung 870 EVO SSD cloned from the original hdd. I had this same issue with a new WD Blue SSD on another laptop, and eventually it stopped powering up altogether after a few months. It's not a BIOS or reading, or even connection issue. I can reinstall the old HDD and it will work flawlessly. I used the same cloning software for a Samsung 990 PRO NVME M.2 on a third HP laptop with no problem. I've tried Samsung Magician, AOMEI Backupper and a dual-dock hard drive reader with independant cloning capability with same results.
I have a HP 15-dw1083wm with a 128GB x600 M.2 and it was dead and is booting to the logon screen but without options. It says that your pin is no longer valid you need to change pin and need internet to do this. However, I can't get to windows to hook up to internet. I try the recovery USB, but it is not working. I went to bios set up and enable the USB boot but still doesn't recognize it. The USB ports seem to be dead.
Were you able to run the HP diagnostic test? Were you able to enter BIOS at all and look for any Recovery or Repair options? Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?
Ive tried multiple steps through this video and the old one you've posted a couple years ago. Nothing seems to have worked. It still says it doesnt have a hard drive installed after doing the steps and checking through the faqs. I tried just a moment ago to try and reseat the hard drive manually but it seems the back of my laptop cant or wont come off. It has honestly made me want to start crying because this has never happened before and i lost my little 2tb hard drive i use to back up my stuff. I tried both the new charger i bought today and the other one, still getting the error. I even contacted hp and they ghosted me pretty much. I an sorry for the rant but i dont know what to do and cant afford another laptop or hard drive right now.. any and all advice will be appreciated.
1. What was the result of the HP diagnostic scan?
2. Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?
@PC_Monkey yes it was apart of the hp diagnostic scan, even did a memory one to rule that out and its fine. There has been no liquid spillage, overheating or due to a windows update.
@@KotoneShiomi98 If the diagnostic test showed your HDD to be healthy and none of the other fixes helped, you would now try to reinstall the operating system. You can see those links here;

Water spilled on my laptop now it shows no bootable device found. There is also no Legacy support button available, no hard drive check. What should I do?
After a liquid spill, you want to first make sure the computer is 100% dry. You would turn your computer off immediately by pressing and holding the power button until the computer turns off. Then you would disassemble the computer as much as your comfortable with, at least trying to remove the bottom case. Then you would turn it on its side and let dry for a couple days. Have you done this yet or are you sure the computer is dry?
the information is great, but I continue to have the notice that I need to insert my installation disc that I do not have. What should I do.
What was the result of the HP diagnostic scan?
@@PC_Monkey I'm not even able to get to that point is only a blue screen.
@@fernandomarulanda8984 1. If you cannot access the diagnostic test, then we dont know if your Hard Drive (HDD) is healthy. We can then proceed, assuming it is. If the other steps in this video do not help, I would then try to reinstall the Operating System (OS).

So I watched your video and none of these things were able to fix my laptop you see I own an HP 14 laptop that used to belong to my little brother until it fell into the ground and stopped working he gave it to me to fix it and upon running it through system diagnostics it told me it could not detect a hard disk so I try to replace it with an SSD and it still could not work I have tried the legacy support option and everything in your video in would still not work but I am certain that it can still be repaired because I previously tried to replace the former hard drive with another from an old Dell laptop and was able to start up again but only for a few minutes and then gave me the blue screen saying how it needs to restart which caused a loop of restarting and shutting down the situation changes when I switch out the hard drives in the most promising when is the SSD if you can help me please reach out 🙏
After installing the new SSD, did you try installing an operating system?

After i did a bios update my hp laptop does not start. It also says bootdevice not found. Get a screen where i with the arrow keys can select to boot up. It asks if i am sure ? Select yes and then it can find the boot device. It is a m2 ssd.
It is very annoying because i have it under my desk with brackets. So everytime i have to disconnect everything. Crawl under the desk. Open it and use the laptop keyboard. Because the external logitec only works after bootup.
Wished i never did that bios update.
It is a G3 17 inch with a Xenon.
Yes :( Messing with BIOS can mess computer up in many cases unfortunately :( Were you able to run this diagnostic test? Can you access BIOS at all and find any options to Restore to Factory Settings?
@@PC_Monkey
Getting into the bios is not a problem. But while powering up it does not see a bootdevice. After a bios update.
And that is horrible. Cause i have installed with brackets under desk. So everytime i have to crawl under it. Unplug everything and slide it out the brackets. Power it up. And then putting it back in the brackets and reconnect everything. 🤔
I have choosen a 5 s bootdelay in the bios. Now it boots ok. I keep that hp laptop always on. But now if it powers down or reboots then atleast it will boot up as it should. No crawling under my desk again.
I have bought a second hand docking station. Have it connected by thunderbolt. It can not power the laptop.
Should it be used icw with another cable ? I also see a round port on the laptop next to thunderbolt. Same connector on the dockingstation.
So i think i need a thunderbolt cable that also has a cable with that round connector ? ? Any idea ?
Big ups bro
It really worked for me
