Hello,
I've had this desktop since June of 2013. Everything has been working fine up until a few days ago, when my computer sometimes would get a blue screen with (KERNEL_SECURITY_ERROR) or something like that. Today, it went to a blue screen and I tried to repair it. It was stuck on "attempting repair" for a couple hours, so I assumed it was stuck and force turned off the computer. When I got back on, this was the message that appeared on my screen, and has been appearing each time I try to restart:
No boot device available Strike the F1 key to retry boot, F2 to run the Setup utility.
SATA 0: Installed
SATA 1: Installed
SATA 2: None
SATA 3: None
MSATA1: None
I've tried rebooting in legacy mode and running diagnostics, but nothing has worked. When I try to boot in legacy mode, I get this message:
Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key
Nothing physically damaging has happened to my hard drive. Finally, the Windows 8 OS was pre-installed on this computer, so I don't have a disc or anything. Currently running Windows 8.1.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
