COULD BE SEVERAL THINGS,,BUT I WOULD CHANGE BATTERY ON MOTHER BOARD FIRST,,THEN GO IN SET
UP,,DEYECT THE HARD DRIVE,,SAVE SETTINGS,,
AND IF THIS WAS BATTERY IT'S FIXED,,
IF COMPUTER 2 YEARS OLD IT'S TIME FOR BATTERY TO FAIL,,I'VE SEEN THEM LAST LONGER AND MUCH SHORTER,,
YOU SHOULD SEE COMPUTER LOOSING TIME BEFORE
IT STARTS LOOSING CKOS SETTINGS ALSO

: When starting computer I get the error message: "Pri Master
: HDD Error Run Set up" or "Auto detecting primaster, press
: to abort,...wait". After auto detect it says HDD not installed.
: Running setup doesn't help it detect HDD either. However, if I
: shut the computer off with the on/off button, wait 5-10 seconds
: and turn it back on, it will open up to windows. How do I fix
: it to open up windows the first time I turn it on?
