Change your boot order in bios

Whenever the computer shows an error like "No operating system found" Or "no boot device found" the fix could be simple. If not a fix it definitely narrows the problem down. All you have to do is go into bios and change the order of the devices your computer tries to boot from.

Most computers have three boot devices.

1- CD-Rom
2- U.S.B. thumb drive or network drive
3- Hard drive

To change these and many other things is quite simple. There are special keystrokes to access bios. To find out which one applies to you watch your computer screen when you first boot your computer. The first logo or name you see (normally) is your bios. It will say Phoenix, Or Intel or something along those lines. After that when the computer first starts to boot you have to press the required keys and then the bios screen loads.

I have to stress one issue. We get a lot of questions here on Fixya about how to change the bios password. This cannot be done here. So
PLEASE DO NOT SET A BIOS PASSWORD!

If you forget this password you cannot load your computer. You will have to take it apart and reset it manually If possible.

For the directions and on screen pictures about settings in bios follow the link below. Remember, this is a VERY tempermental part of your computer. If you don't feel comfortable making changes in here don't change anything until you ask someone and you are sure about the results.
