Anyone awake? I need some help. My laptop keeps showing this message about "checking media: fail" and now my laptop won't boot up. What's the issue?
>>
You're fine i wouldn't actually worry about it!
>>
Probably your HDD broken.
>>
take a pic of the error.

>No boot device found. Press any key to reboot the machine
Next time, don't upload your pictures upside down.

Try taking out the hard drive and putting it in a different computer. It'll determine whether or not that's the problem.

It happens when a hdd is dying.
Boot some Linux from disk or usb flash or boot hdd regenerator.
Before doing those you can check if your hdd is physically ok.
>>
Your hard drive might've gotten dislodged or something. Try taking it out and putting it back in.
>>
It's the HDD, most likley. Try litening, if you can hear it making wierd sounds it's dead. Also if it isn't makimg any sounds.
>>
>>59193801
It's louder than usual.
>>
>>59193809
That probably confirms that it is the problem. Whether you can fix it, or, at least, get the data back is another question.
>>
>>59193863
I took out the HDD. I doubt just putting it back in would do anything.
>>
>>59193863
It's saying that my HDD can't be detected.
>>
>>59194156
You can't repair it yourself. Better bring it to a repair centre if you want your HDD/data back.
>>
I'd at least try doing a live boot into Linux to see if you can get the data off.
>>
>>59194217
So there's nothing I can do?

Might as well come clean, I'm fairly certain this only happened because I was pissed off doing homework and slammed my hand on the keyboard.

>I was pissed off doing homework and slammed my hand on the keyboard.

I wanted to help you but really though, fys.
>>
meet up with the other anon that has a spare ssd you fucking faggot.
>>
>>59194369
Anyone ever tell you that sudden movements and pressure are bad when the HDD is running? Jesus buddy. Take care of your equipment.
>>
>>59193678
Dead hard drive, might be able to salvage the data by finding a donor hard drive and swapping logic boards and/or BIOSes. Look it there are websites with model specific instructions and even parts for sale.
>>
>>59193748
How old was the HDD?
>>
unplug any USB devices attached.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
