Hi guys.

I have been experiencing an issue where during the post no hdd is detected. Some would say that hdd is gone/dead. It is not really because if i enter the bios and go to ide configuration field and open first device ( which says no detected device ) suddenly hdd appears to be there with the correct info about it and asks me to save and reboot. After the reboot I am back where I was before. The message after the post says usual : reboot or insert proper boot device but OS (debian ) is installed correctly including the grub and its config. I can boot from usb and chroot to that OS and do anything I like to.
Supprisingly during the post it detects some usb device and says that usb device is ok although i have disable usb completely to get rid of it.
Here are some pictures to see it: http://i57.tinypic.com/okcqom.jpg
and then when I enter that option: http://i60.tinypic.com/4khan5.jpg .
BIOS is in the very latest version too.

Same problem here on K50c after updating bios to 2.10.
