(you could also move the drive to a 2.5" drive usb enclosure and plug it into another computer)Īfter your data is safe, either try the Windows Repair or Reinstall Windows (if the HD is good). Knowing this - you can then use a linux LiveCD, LiveDVD or LiveUSB to boot from and save your data. (test that by disabling the ethernet adapter in the bios, then you will get the standard "insert bootable media" warning) Since you can not remove the "network" boot from your startup sequence in the BIOS of this laptop, it then tries to boot from the realtek ethernet and subsequently dies. IMO, a virus/trojan/power event has trashed your boot sector or your hard drive has died, this means that the computer is lookingįor other media to boot from. My kids use it for home work.ĭo you feel the HD is dead? Prior to this happening, it kept doing a disk scan, thru system diagnostics, not from a third party tool.Othertimes it would boot normally and most times I would boot in normal mode without issue.Īny other guidance? If you feel its a hard drive failure, what would be my next steps? Any chance I could get data off the drive? My daughter has pictured and college apps on the drive.Ī friend brought me his N5050 inspiron with the same issue. I bought the laptop in Feb, and its used, but not what I would consider heavily. I also removed the hard drive and re-seated it, but again, no difference. I could tap F2 and look at boot priority (hd, cd, usb, diskette, network respectively) I will say, this surprised me.Īlso try booting system to Safe Mode (tap F8 on start up,select safe mode).Does the system boot to Windows in safe mode? Disconnect all external peripherals(such as USB devices) from the system and trying running the hardware diagnostics by tapping F12 on start up (Dell Logo),select Diagnostics.
