Hi.
I recently bought a Dell Latitude e6520 with a 256gb SSD, and no HDD. I tried booting it up, but the error message "Media test failure, check cable" shows and then "no boot device found" also shows. I went into BIOS and checked to see if the SSD was top priority in the boot sequence. I set the SATA mode to AHCI, but the SSD wasn't a boot option at all in Legacy or UEFI. I booted from a USB flash drive with win7 installation software on it, and ran startup repair. No problems were detected, so I decided to reinstall windows and try again. I began the installation but an error popped up saying there was no drive that had windows installed and I had to manually load drivers. I browsed the system files from the installation screen and the SSD does has windows program files, and boot files. I'm not sure as to why it's not booting , please help.
