No Boot Device Found/No Hardware Detected

Hello,

I have been using my laptop for almost a year now and have opened it 2 days ago to find a message saying ‘No Boot Device Found’. I have never tampered with the computers settings before but have restart it to factory mode 2 weeks prior. I ran the diagnostic test and it read’ No Hard Drive Detected’. I really need help to fix this.

Unplug the system, disconnect the  battery and hold the power button for 30 sec.

Remove and reinstall the drive.  If it's then seen, run a full diagnostic (F12 at powerup).

If it's not seen, it will need to be replaced.  Most new systems have a year's warranty -- record the error and validation code and contact Dell to have the drive replaced.

And also how should my BIOS Setup look like.

You'll need to supply the model number -- i.e., Inspiron N5110, 5535, etc.
