If you encounter this error on startup, try checking the connection of the hard drive inside the CPU. Shut down your computer then open the CPU case. Now, disconnect all the cables from the hard drive. After this, connect the ribbon cable back to the drive if you are using an IDE or the SATA cable if you have a SATA drive.

For the power, connect a different power supply cable to the drive. When you are finished, start the CPU again then press Del, Delete, F2, or whichever key is used to go to the BIOS. In the BIOS, go to the drive management section and verify that the hard drive is detected. Save the settings and exit.

If this doesn’t work, disconnect the other end of the cable from motherboard for IDE then connect it back. For SATA, connect the other end of the cable to another SATA port.
