Eugene,
Hopefully it is just an issue with the bios startup device list...
Have you tried to get to the boot menu by pressing F12 repeatedly?
It should provide you will a list of devices to boot from. (CD, Hard
drive, Network, etc.) If you see the hard drive select it and see if
it boots. If it does then you will need to change the boot device
order in the Bios by Pressing F1 repeatedly to get into the Setup
program. Follow the instructions below. Beware that if your CMOS
battery is dying then if might not be saving your settings and you
might end up having you redo the boot list and date/time reset often.
To view or permanently change the configured startup device sequence,
do the following:
1. Start the Setup Utility program (see “Starting the Setup Utility
program” on page 19).
2. Select Startup → Startup Sequence, and see the information
displayed on the right side of the screen.
3. Select the devices for the Primary Startup Sequence, the Automatic
Startup Sequence, and the Error Startup Sequence.
4. Select Exit from the Setup Utility menu and then Save Settings or
Save and exit the Setup Utility. If you have changed these settings
and want to return to the default settings, select Load Default
Settings on the Exit menu.
hope it helps,
Derek Buchanan
