Product: Hp4730s
Operating System: Linux
I replaced hdd with ssd. One screw was missing. First I got linux sysadmin prompt to boot with no usb detected. Notebook recognized my empty ssd disk. I reinstalled kubuntu lts from desktop computer to usb. Then I noticed that the screw which I had to throw away and was before fixing hdd to computer nearest the seat was ( the hole I mean the part that carried the ssd on notebook) 5mm away. I replaced the screw from another hole and tried to boot again from usb unsuccessfully. Before I came to boot menu now the screen is blank. Caps lockblinks 3 times. I ve reseated the memory... Factory reset... Factory reset withot battery, memory and wireless. Nothing new. I did not find the Cmosbattery. Please help me, thanks, Grega Leskovšekfrom Slovenia
