My mothers computer has stopped detecting the hard drive on boot up. Nothing has been changed (except for installing some new software for a digital camera).
On start up, it goes through the bios screens but then fails to find any boot up files - It finds the floppy and cd rom drive but not the hard disk.
It has an AMD K7 series motherboard with AMI dual Bios. Part number is GA-K7ZX. The processor is a duron 800MHz. I can't remember the size of the hard drive but i think it is about 20mb.
Looking in the BIOS settings it seems to have 'lost' the primary master hard drive.
Trying autodetect simply comes back with "not found".
Any ideas?
Thanks for any help.
