Re: Operating system is not found

Rick,
sure the text could say, but it's gone with the first screen and now I'm
getting no screens at all... As I remember, at the bottom it said something
about atapi and the errors like x0000007 or similar... Not much... I'll get
a diagnostic tool and see what happens.
Thanks for your suggestions.
Ilya
