Can you go into bios setup? If you have Backup CD's try factory reset. there is a chance you loose your files. there is some software to retrive them but it will cost you.

I had installed one software that was bios update after installation that software Hp pavillion dv2000 bios configuration had chage. how can i solve this problem now my laptop cant detect the harddrive. it...

Restart your laptop, and immediately press DELETE to enter BIOS setup. Select "Load BIOS Defaults". Navigate through the menus;
you should see "auto-detect disk-drive". Run that utility.
Save the updated BIOS settings, and exit from BIOS-setup.

If all else fails, take the computer to a qualified technician.
It's probably just a 10-minute "fix" for an expert.

I did a bios flash update on my hp laptop.windows not installing!

wrong BIOS
you are dead in the water, the laptop is dead. unless you can get another same motherboard and swap the BIOS.
other choice is to install your OS from the begining, if the laptop let you into the BIOS.
