Laptop is not booting up windows 7?
(3 posts)Couple of things you could check
Check the boot order in the bios and make sure that the hard drive is detected there.
There may be a Hard Drive test utility in the bios, try running that to see if the hard drive is faulty.
Question did the laptop boot after the re-install ok?
