If your Dell computer is giving you a No Boot Device, Boot Device Not Found, Inaccessible Boot Device or other boot up issue, follow this for help troubleshooting. If the HDD turns out to be bad, it would need to be replaced. You can see HDD and SSD ideas in the Computer Component list here: www.amazon.com.... After installing a new drive, you would need to install an operating system to it. You can see those links below. Check out the FAQ's and Related Video Links below !!

FAQ's:
Q: What are the buttons you press?
A: F2 - BIOS, F12 - Diagnostic Options
Q: What if you cant change between Legacy and UEFI?
A: If you cant find those options or cant change between them, move on and continue with the rest of the video. What was the result of the Dell diagnostic scan? Can you find any Repair or Recovery options in BIOS?
Q: Changing the settings in BIOS didn't help and the scan passed everything :(
A: If changing the settings in BIOS did not help and the diagnostic scan showed the hard drive to be healthy, you can try the Repair or Recovery options in BIOS or undoing the last update if applicable. If that does not help, your last resort would be to install a new operating system.

Q: I cant run the diagnostic scan. It wont complete or I cant access it.
A: If you cannot run the scan, we don't know for sure if the HDD is healthy or not. We will have to continue troubleshooting assuming it is for now. If its healthy, and if the issue is operating system related, I would then reinstall it.

@PC_Monkey Жыл бұрын

@@nishunigam22801. You need to look around your BIOS to find where those settings are. Sometimes you can change between the two with a dropdown menu. Other times, it would be disabling one, activates the other. Every BIOS is different. 2. If you cannot find where to do that, or if doing it does not help, can you run the Dell diagnostic scan?

I've got one for you. I have a Dell 3420 Precision SFF. Booting from USB to Open Media Vault 6 (Linux NAS software). Using Legacy in the BIOS, it boots one time. If I re-boot or have power failure, it will not reboot again without going into the BIOS again, change a setting, and exiting. It will then boot. Until a re-boot or powerfailure. I am using wireless (usb dongled) keyboard and sometimes I could hit key when I got the "no boot device found error" and it would boot up without going into the BIOS. I decided to update the BIOS to latest and now wireless keyboard not recognized until after the BIOS??? I am curious if I flash back an older BIOS on it without messing it up. Wish I figure this out. It's a pain to have to go into the BIOS every time I need to reboot the thing

Since second to last post, I shutdown the bad PC when I couldn't figure out how to get sufficient free space to the primary drive during the windows 10 reinstall. Now, when I try to restart PC, without windows 10 reinstall USB, the PC gets to the Dell logo, and starts over -- another loop? The HD tests were done immediately after observing the "No Boot...." problem appeared. Feel like I'm slipping down deeper in that proverable rabbit hole.

Hello my friend, first I want to thank your efforts and clear information, it was really helpful. I have a problem with my friend dell inspiron 15 5547. I was using it and everything was fine. A message appeared from the system telling me that there was an update for some system features, and I logged in and accepted the update. After completion it asked to restart to install those updates. And here, I began to suffer with it When restarting the device, the device did not work, and a single beep sound appeared, repeated at a fixed time, and here I learned from the official website that this sound indicates that you have lost the BIOS I re-installed the BIOS file through an external programming tool, and when I run it, an error appears that says that it is no bot device found, and when I enter the BIOS settings and choose to boot From the other option, a black screen appears containing a small line like this (-) in the upper left side, and it remains like this, and I had to reboot, and here I was surprised that the BIOS lost its file again. Every time that black screen appears, I lose the BIOS file and there is another problem. There is a sudden shutdown after a few seconds of turning on the device, and sometimes it does not turn off. I have confirmed the time and date, and I have done a full examination of the device, and no error has appeared. The hard drive is intact, the processor is intact, everything is intact and works well I replaced the bios battery and still the same problem I installed a new BIOS chip and the same problem remained The examination tells me that the hard disk is in good condition, but there may be a problem with it, but even after removing it, this sudden shutdown remains, not all of the time (sudden shutdown) loss of bios data)

I purchased a laptop that did not have an operating system and only has a msata card in it. I tried hooking up an external hard disk and it seems to have done something to the drive because when I tried to return them to their original systems neither one would come up. I believe the MSATA changed some settings on both drives. I made some changes in the Bios and now under the pre-boot system assessment it tells me that the hard drive's not present.I am dealing with imaginable circumstances and it would not be out incomprehensible that the system I received was designed to sabotage some things. Your help would be greatly appreciated and rewarded.

Sometime it is the bios corruption leaving no device detected in storage configuration while they are still visible in the boot option but once you attempt to launch it would come up as “ no bootable device found” disable ahci by switched to ide mode and device appears but “no bootable device found” is still occurred. Turn back to ahci mode and goes to boot option, select the uefi option of the boot media and it goes to installation option and device is in the option! This leaving me to believe it the bios and possible hardware failure that it literally skipped CSM and force everything have to run on Uefi . I end up swap the motherboard in the end because I can’t afford to lose my data with silly uefi boot.

If changing the settings in BIOS did not help and the diagnostic scan showed the hard drive to be healthy, then you can proceed with the rest of the video. You can try the Repair or Recovery options in BIOS or undoing the last update if applicable. If that does not help, your last resort would be to install a new operating system.

Hello! thanks for the video! Mine has a specific issue that sometimes it boots up, and sometime it doesnt. My laptop had a HDD, and I changed to SSD, installed windows 11, but with an i3 of 7th gen. It was getting BSOD showing a message: system service exception, and 0xc0000185 (required device inst connected or cant be accessed). I'm still doing some tests. I can keep it on for more than hours and wont give any problem. Ive also upgraded the memory card, now it has a 4GB DDR4 cas 15 and a 8GB DDR4 cas 19 (2.400MHz and 3.200MHz). I´ve changed the SSD and installed windows 10 on it because ive read that windows 11 wouldnt work on 7th gen (ive installed thorough a pendrive). It went straight into dell diagnostics when i restarted. It was configured to boot UEFI, so changed to legacy. It didnt boot up the first time, but now i restarted about 6x and its fine. Not sure the difference between legacy and uefi, and i'm not sure if the flat cable has some issue when I removed the HDD, still a mistery, but i'll keep doing tests. Thank you (Dell inspiron15 3000 i15-3567-A15P)
