    • Restart the computer and access the BIOS/UEFI setup utility by pressing the appropriate key during startup (usually displayed on the screen, such as F2 or Del).
    • Verify that the hard drive is detected in the BIOS/UEFI. If it's not, there may be a connection issue or a problem with the drive itself.
    • Boot Order Configuration
    • Check the boot order settings in the BIOS/UEFI. Ensure that the hard drive containing the operating system is set as the primary boot device.
    • Diagnostic Tools
    • If the hard drive is detected in the BIOS/UEFI but still not booting, use diagnostic tools like the built-in hardware diagnostics or third-party software to check the health of the hard drive for any potential failures.
    • External Boot Media
    • Boot the computer from external media (such as a bootable USB drive or CD/DVD) containing a diagnostic or operating system installation tool. This can help determine if the issue is with the installed operating system or the hard drive itself.
    • Check for Operating System Issues
    • If the computer boots from external media successfully, it suggests that the issue may be with the operating system installation on the hard drive. Attempt to repair the operating system using recovery options or reinstall the operating system if necessary.
    • Replace Hard Drive
    • If all troubleshooting steps fail and the hard drive is determined to be faulty, it may need to be replaced. Ensure to back up any important data before replacing the drive.
    • Seek Professional Assistance
    • If you're unable to resolve the issue after performing these steps, consider seeking assistance from a professional technician or contacting technical support for further guidance.
