Hi,
I have a custom built pc that's around 1 and a half years old now, I have had this problem twice in the past before but this time I'm having a bigger problem; I have searched and read many threads on a variety of websites but none seem to match my problem close enough.
I have gone into the BIOS and set the default boot device to be my HDD.
I have checked all the wires leading from the motherboard and PSU to the HDD are plugged in correctly.
I have removed all the connections from the back of the case, leaving only the mouse, Keyboard and DVI cables.
I have removed all the SATA cables from their connections, leaving only the HDD with a SATA cable coming from the motherboard.
I also don't think that I can use the Windows OEM disk to try to fix the the problem because my system is running Windows 8.1 rather than the original Windows 7 I installed from the Disk.
My specs are as follows:
Intel i5 3570k
Gigabyte Z77 D3H
Western digital 3tb hdd
