Hopefully somebody has a simple answer! I dont like to bother people on here but I have spent days on this now.
When I turn a laptop on, it takes a long time at the POST screen then says OS not found. So, If I enter setup at the post screen it says HDD is not present.
However, If I turn the laptop on and press ctrl-alt-del immediately it boots up fine. So It doesnt cold boot but it reboots/warm boots fine.
If it was my personal laptop I would get over it, but its a laptop I have to sell and its very frustrating!
I have tried resetting the BIOS (removing the cmos battery), changing every possible setting in the BIOS and a few other things I cannot remember off the top of my head.
Has anyone had a similar problem?
Thanks in advance guys
