(Redirected) Reference Dell D430 - no boot device

I installed a new hard drive in the laptop second hand - it is recognized in the Bios/devices. Now, try to install the operating system of the reader of cd, but when starting message appears "no devices found startup, press F1 etc." Diagnosis don't identify any problems. Postings on the internet read, this seems a common problem, but not one that I was able to resolve yet. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you

    So I saved for different types of documents on a flashdrive (PDF, Word, Excel) and after having placed the flash stick drive in port on my Dell 1815n, an error pops up that States format not supported for files. I have formatted the USB stick, but cannot get anything to print. I tried 2 different flash drives to ensure that either has not been corrupted? Any help?

  • (Redirected) Reference DELL 5547 Fan starts while that closed down and drains the battery at 0%, especially may not wake from sleep

    Hello

    When I turn off my laptop the fan starts to spin then and during a night, it drains the battery from 100% to 0. I also have some problems of marketing. If the computer is in sleep mode itself or by me, I can't wake up, need button for 10 seconds and then push again and it starts. When turned on, it works perfectly but has these problems. I read somewhere that the resolution of these problems has been to remove the software intel from my computer and I did. It helped but 2 days computer started having these problems again. My system is Windows 7 64 bit. This problem started after that I have somehow left fully charged computer asleep on the charger for about 2 hours. When I came back fan was spinning and the right side of the laptop was hot. Again, battery life is great and computer has no defects during the work (all tests by dell are passed). What can you suggest me to do?

  • When I try to power to the top of our Dell computer, we get a black screen and the message "boot device available. Press button to try again. »

    Pressing enter does nothing, then it usually starts by pressing "ctrl-alt-delete."  The computer runs VERY slowly.  We have Windows XP and also just downloaded Safe Eyes software McAfee, but it was slow & have start questions for a while.  My son also downloads a lot of PS3 games, etc.  Who would have something to do with it so slow?  Is there something we can do to clean it ourselves instead of redoing it to Best Buy and pay $100?

    Hello

    Start are what problems you referring?

    Method 1: May be that the hard drive is not detected. Boot to the Bios Setup and make sure that the first boot device is defined as hard drive and also make sure that save you the settings and check what is happening.

    If your computer is not configured to boot from a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions. For assistance, contact the manufacturer of your computer.

    Warning of the BIOS:

    BIOS change / oxide of additional metal (CMOS) semiconductor parameters incorrectly can causeserious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    Method 2: If you are able to boot to the desktop then try to perform the clean boot on the computer to resolve the performance issue.

    From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".
