Computer Startup Problem - Cant find drives

698 Views 2 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  raptor_pa
Hi,

When I try to turn on my computer, the first Dell loading screen bar loads until the end where it stops and then the computer beeps rapidly and continously. When I click to go into setup, I can see none of the drives have been found (except the 2 CD drives). Over the past few months I have been having some startup problems but none that prevented me from loading fully. Any help on this would really be appreciated.

Thanks!

What model is the dell?

Open the case and check the power and data cables to the drives.
Also make certain teh RAM is seated correctly, Ram is checked before storage, and if no ram is identified, the drives will never be checked.
