Two days ago I cut the power to my computer by accident, and I have not shut it down yet. Or it was in the middle of shutting down.
The next day I was automatically sent to BIOS, and could not exit the BIOS at all. If I press exit, the computer restarts and sends be back again

I cant even find my hard drive in the bios, it is like the whole hard drive broke down

Hi there Cd5ssmffan,

As the drive is not recognized by BIOS, you need to attach it with different cables(both SATA and power ones) to a different port.
It would be nice if you can attach it to another system as well. That way you will be sure whether your HDD has failed or there is something wrong with your system.
