Hello.
I was having issues with my Laptop, and I had someone install a new ROM BIOS on the system.
Now, it will not recognize ANY internal drives.
It seems that they put in the WRONG ROM BIOS.
I'm hoping to find the RIGHT one.
Here are the details of the Laptop.
HP Laptop: 17t-cn000 / 17cn1007cy

Motherboard Part Number: 17N-8L-TGL

Hoping someone can point me to the right ROM BIOS...
