No bootable device
SOURCE: I have emachine t5010 not booting. I receive error message
This means the system can't read from your hard drive. This might be due to a loose data or power cable connection. You can open the computer and make sure all the connections are firmly seated. It might also be a power supply problem. The hard drive may have failed. Or the drive may been wiped clean (or at least had its boot sector destroyed) as the result of a virus. A problem on the system board might have developed. Troubleshooting would involve booting from a CD to run diagnostic software, substituting known good parts, or both.
