593297 2007-09-20 12:18:00 hi I have a hp nx9030, when i start up the system tells me 'no operation system found' after trying to reinstall xp a blue screen appears with the error "setup did not find any hard disk drive installed in your computer". I saw in modt treads that you can repair it by downloading the sata on a floppy but my laptop doesn`t have a sata drive, what else can I do??:waughh: nohely828 (12846)

Check its pushed in tightly and not come loose.
Go into the BIOS, does it see it there? It should be seeing it on Primary Master.

Could well be that the hard drive has died in which case you will need to replace it.
