Is it possible to check the hard drive through the BIOS? I am looking for errors or something that can tell if my drive is good or not. There is no operating system on the computer, and for some reason using multiple disks, installing Ubuntu UE fails as well as Kubuntu.
Any ideas on a program I boot from CD or use through the BIOS would be great help.
After a few different tries of installing I can also no longer get my disks to boot. I get a black screen with the "_" flashing and that is it.
This laptop also had issues before I reformatted with random shut downs. I don't really know whats going on so I though HDD would be the first and easiest thing to check before I go digging into the screen or CD drive.
