My R50 died!

#1 Post by peterross » Sat Feb 07, 2009 1:49 pm

Hello
I have a r50 notebook and the hard drive recently failed, attempts to restore have been futile... (meaning i have tried restoring and no luck)
I tried putting a new hard drive into it however it says "no operating system detected" and turns off, any thoughts on how to get the laptop working?
thanks
Pete

And make sure you mention the 7-character Type-Model from the bottom of your laptop, e.g. R50 1856-A34
