ok I have a laptop gateway nv50a and replaced the hard drive..i used the recovery discs to restore my os yet the laptop will not boot from the hard drive it does in fact show in the the bios I turned off network booting as well as moved it up to the first spot in the boot list I tried recovery again and it now says that I am able to use system restore wich shows that it did copy to the HDD but it still says (no bootable device)....any idea what I going on?
heres the short list new hard drive
os installed with recovery disc
HDD shows in bios
have proven that the recovery did infact install to new HDD
still shows that there is no bootable device
also sorry for the poor typing im a little frustrated
