I recently switched to Debian Linux from windows but when booting up, it comes up with an error in ,which it cannot find an OS. I believe maybe some settings in the bios will fix the issue but the problem is I cannot access it. I've taken out the CMOS and main battery for over a week. I've tried to contact support and they've done nothing. When you fail the password enough it just says system disabled. No code. I'm starting to lose hope so do any of you have any possible solutions???
