Try a hard reset as follows:

1) Remove the battery and unplug the DC power adapter.
2) Press and hold the power button for more than fifteen seconds.
3) Plug in the DC power adapter (leave the battery out for now)
4) Press the power button

Please post your positive or negative results here in your thread.

Your comment was certainly not helpful to anyone. If you don't have something to add to help in troubleshooting the problem, please  be nice and lurk...quietly without negative comments.

 

My advice was meant for the author of this thread, not for you and is called troubleshooting. A hard reset often jogs a notebook that will not start into operating as it should. Often a new member who has started a thread will use the advice given and find that it resolves their issue. The same new member may never even post to his or her thread again to let people who responded know if a suggestion helped or not. We accept that as part of the nature of the forum culture.   

 

Start your own thread and someone may help you.

I understand that you are getting a no boot device found error on startup. Here is a document I think may help Error: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible (Windows 7, 😎  click here. Did this error just appear out of the blue or did you make some changes? When posting it is very helpful if you post your computer model and operating system, as it aid us in finding information for you.  How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?  click here.

This is a two year old thread.

 

It would be best if you started your own thread and included information on your notebook model and operating system.
