Solving No bootable Device

'No bootable Device 

insert boot disk and press any key !'

This error usually occurs when you install a new OS. This error is common and there are only 2 ways to solve this error. For people who like to know the logic behind the errors, for them solution starts here. These errors come up when the bootable device is not properly set to boot.Its like a key to open a door is in a bag full of everything.

**Make sure that the OS is installed properly and even after installing OS your system shows this error.

**Before doing this make sure that you don't have any speakers or any USB drive other than mouse and keyboard connected to the computer.

#1

-To sort this mess out we need to place the hard disk that have the OS installed on the top of the initialization process."To do this is that you press F2(Press the button that brings up BIOS) at the start of the boot of your PC".

 ____________________________________________________________________

-This command will open the BIOS screen that will have the option of hard disks or boot-able drives or a boot option like in the picture of bios screen.Open the 'Boot' tab then arrange the drives in such a way that the drive with OS installed in it is at the top.That is 1st Boot Device.

After doing that Save and Exit the Bios.The System will get Restarted.

#2

Okay, if the above thing worked and after restarting it started working then go to #3  or follow this.

 

If you are here then that means that above thing didn't work. Actually that process is the simplest and  hence recommended do be done first.

**THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS AND YOU MIGHT GET AN ELECTRIC SHOCK.

**Make sure that power is turned off and power cables are removed for extra precautions.

IF A MINOR THEN DO THIS UNDER PARENT'S SUPERVISION. 

Though this is very much safe if power is turned off but I am not to blame if you get hurt !!

Now you will require a four head screw driver or a suitable screw driver for you CPU cabinet.

- Open the side panel of the CPU Cabinet.

What are we going to do ?

We are going to remove the other hard disks and CD Driver other than the hard disk with OS. Make sure in which hard disk you have your OS.

____________________________________________________________

If you are following this then you are on the right track.

-After removing the side panel you need to remove the SATA cables from hard disks rather than the mother board as that could damage or break you mother board.
##It is important that you leave the drive with OS installed on it connected to the motherboard.

(OS INSTALLED DRIVE IT THE ONE THAT YOU INSTALLED YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM ON) 

-Remove the CD Driver and hard disk SATA cables other than the hard disk with OS.

-Make sure that the cables you removed from one end that is attached to disk is not touching the mother board or hindering the movement of the processor fan.

Now, power up your PC and leave the cabinet panel open but do not touch anything while the the PC is powered.

This should start your PC.If the PC didn't start then check whether the cables are connected properly and the drive with the OS is connected.

###If this didn't work then take it to a technician.###

If your PC started working then follow the  #3 Step.

#3

If you are here then you were doing good by now.

Actually this step is to make sure that you don't get this error again.

 

# Open Control Panel 

 

_______________________________

Open Device Manager.

by going to computers and selecting device manager or Typing devmgmt.msc in the RUN .

Then Device management window will open.

Click on the Disk Drives option.

And select the drive with OS and click on update driver.

Then select Search auto option when another window come up.

This will do the magic.(You can follow the same step if it says that the drivers were not found.You may connect to internet to have the drivers installed for you disk)

If this arise again follow these steps again.

You now may connect all the drives back.

After sometime the error will stop appearing.

And None of those pictures used are mine. :D
