I have an Acer switch 11... Showing no boot device

All of a sudden while working on my switch 11, he said that he had to stop. Now, I get the message "no boot device" when I try to start. I could put in a USB key which was a recovery disk. . It allows me to go into the Bios. When I try to choose "refresh your PC it says the drive where Windows is installed is locked." When I go into bios and select the information tab, the name of the model of SDS said nothing and there is no serial number. Does this mean that my SSD drive is fried? Is there anything I can try to get a reaction?

It is still under warranty? You can contact Mrs. They will tell you contact Acer.If it is not under warranty,.

If it's only the SSD, it is fairly simple to repair if you are somewhat mechanically inclined. I can help you with that.

  • Acer Predator 17 G9-791-73 CL - no boot device error

    Hi guys,.

    My laptop is an Acer Predator 17

    i76700HQ 2.6

    16 GB OF RAM

    GTX 980M 4 GB

    Basically, the new update for windows 10 destroyed my files, nothing did not work properly, I tried to reboot to a restore point that I created (he has not worked as the girls were damaged) I tried to reset, (same thing damaged files) I tried practically all the existing troubleshooting options (F8) but also to reset the default bios (F2) , I unplugged the hard drive, put it back again, nothing worked so I installed windows from a USB pendrive of freeOS, I removed both of C(main one) D (second) partitions and created new ones and I installed the windows, I lie down, installed all the apps and everything was working fine, until I decided to update the BIOS/Firmware with those specified to install for my model of laptop computer on the site Acer

    BIOSAcer1. update of the Micro code 2. Version of update ME1.104.3 MB12/04/2016 
    BIOSAcerFixed not able to enter the BIOS configuration without optical media player utility in the [...]1.064.6 MB11/12/2015

    The thing is, I installed the new BIOS on UEFI mode and legacy not I don't know if that makes a difference or not, but when the computer laptop restarded, error - no. Bootable Device appears on the screen all of a sudden and it does not further than that, start one and I know not what to do about this I ran tests of hard drive and it works very well, the thing is I am currently on a legacy (in bios) mode and it works very well, I had to change to access my laptop, but the (UEFI mode) does not work for some reason itt continues to show no boot device and I don't know why I tried to reinstall windows again and delete the partitions, but F8 doesn't work on UEFI mode

    Any ideas on what I should do?

    Also, when I try to install new BIOS, I get the error: the version of the ROM file is not newer than the BIOS.

    I'm so stuck right now, this is my first posting of time on a forum for help with a laptop and I got computers/laptops for fifteen years, because I don't want to buy another hard... I tried something on the internet and I can't seem to make it work.

    This guy, I really appreciate your help, thank you

    for UEFI boot, windows must be installed under UEFI not inherited, because there need an EFI partition and the Manager start windows.

    So if you want to UEFI, you must reinstall windows.

    do not forget to support bootable USB of re - install windows (under settings of UEFI) must be UEFI compatible, I strongly suggest to use Rufus to create:

    https://Rufus.AKEO.IE/?locale=en_US

    define Rufus as the screen on the home page.

  • I have a hp mini 311-1037nr who recently failed to start. data error is "boot device not found.

    My hp mini 311-1037nr does not start. Its running windows 7 and no changes have been made. Error message is "boot device not found. It will not run a hard drive test, gives "the hard disk does not exist '. Tried not to reset the default settings of the BIOS also no luck. any ideas?

    Drive appears you in the BIOS? If not, and if reinstalling it does not help that I assume safely that the hard disk is dead.

    You can also try to download/creation of the various Linux Live boot floppies [Unbuntu, PartedMagic, etc.] to confirm that your other components are not at fault. If you can start and run a live linux OS then your other components of the system may very well.

    You can also remove the drive of your machine and install it as a secondary drive in another computer or a disk to see if you can access it.

    You can also run a HDD diagnosis by accessing your site of hard drive manufacturers and download/creating a diagnostic boot disk.

  • separate the keyboard of Acer switch 11

    Hello!

    I have an Acer Aspire 11 switch SW5-171- 39 LB. This model allows me to separate the screen keyboard. Sometimes, I was hoping to be able to separate the display and place it in a location which is at eye height and leave the keyboard on the desktop and connect the keyboard to the screen via a USB cable. Unfortunately, once I have separate screen keyboard, the keyboard does not work even if I connect via a USB cable on the screen. I am forced to use the on-screen keyboard. I use instead the "real keyboard." If someone has a creative way around that instead of having to buy another USB keyboard, I'll be interested. Thank YOU

    Sorry, not going to be possible. USB connections tend to either you allow to use them as a host to a USB device (for example, a USB port on a PC) or as a client to this host (for example the USB connectors located on a mouse or a keyboard). Your keyboard has a connection on the side which connects to the computer that acts as a client and a port on the side which acts as a host. You cannot move the functions...

  • Hi there I have an acer aspire one and I have a problem with my wireless connection.

    Hi there I have an acer aspire one and I have problems with my wireless connection.it is connected, but I can't use internet.any thoughts? Thank you

    A look at the "front" face, under the lip of the keyboard, similar to where a lock would be on a laptop. There is here a cursor that is not a lock, but it is a switch that activates / deactivates him wireless on and outside. Slide it on until it turns on the light above it (with the logo of the antenna), indicating wireless is turned on and drag it again to turn it off.

    When I was in the BIOS section, none of the items in the Security section would allow me to make changes.

Scrolled down for TPM, click 'clear' screen changed and I was in the Setup like the first time that I turned on the computer. And to top it all, didn't even from USB. Apparently, he was able to access the Recovery partition even if just before the BSOD this partition has been listed as "unallocated".  Thanks for your attempt to help me.

  • Acer aspire switch 10 no boot device

    Hello, I am working on an Acer Aspire Switch 10 2 in 1 (there so no usb port and no cd drive) when I turn it on it flashes Acer logo for a second and then jump to "No boot device" with an image of a hard drive and a magnifying glass. This was not the case before. I could get for the recovery and trying, but it did not work. Now it seems that when I go in the settings of UEFI, boot order options have nothing other than IPV4 and peripheral USB for possible boot options.

    On information in the BIOS, you can find any reference to the members of the SSD?

    If this isn't the case, it is probably a hardware failure.

  • I have an Acer Aspire One Netbook. (No DVD player). From the start on the hard drive, I get a black screen with a blinking cursor.

    I have an Acer Aspire One Netbook.  (No DVD player).  From the start on the hard drive, I get a black screen with a blinking cursor.  The cursor does not type.  For me, maybe I need to reinstall windows 7 and startup tasks are corrupt.  I have my product key genuine for the computer, but no way to get to windows.  How to restore windows on a netbook that won't start?

    original title: Netbook Windows 7 problem

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

    Borrow a 32 bit Genuine Windows 7 friends DVD disc if you know someone who has one.

    Make an image of the DVD, you can use a program like ISO Recorder to do.

    If you don't have a Windows 7 DVD to borrow, try to upload a picture:

    http://MSFT-DNL.digitalrivercontent.NET/msvista/pub/X15-65732/X15-65732.ISO

    You change the content of the. ISO file and delete the ei.cfg file. After having edited burn it to a blank DVD disc or put it on a USB key. Startup, it will reveal all editions of Windows 7, select the Starter edition. More information in the following article on how to change the file ei.cfg
