With the drive not detected as noted in the post, it usually means the hard drive has failed.  The general hints on things to look for are just that general.  Start thinking about finding a new hard drive.  If you are up to doing that task yourself, HERE IS THE MANUAL on how to go about it.  Starts on page 8.  Look for the heading - Removing and replacing a Hard Disk Drive
