Hey... First off, Thank You for your Very helpful videos ! As you mentioned in this one,my Lenovo G500 does have the full back cover (no srew)...Help?! Ty!!!
Hey, in my bios I only have 3 options under the boot option, USB boot, PXE boot to LAN, IPV4 PXE First (all enabled). I tried disabling the "secure boot" under the security option but nothing happens. I also don't think my lenovo (Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14ARE05) has the option for a diagnostic check. I really need some help.
@ayesha naveed It somehow just fixed by itself. I was turning it off and on, going to bios and turning off, just doing random stuff in hopes of it fixing. Then one day it just started working randomly lol. I didn't do anything special. Is yours still doing the same thing?
@@biillerick hi. My laptop didn't have a hard drive. And unfortunately it only had C drive and no other partitions. So the guy who fixed it told me that the SSD needs to be replaced and I ended up losing all of my data. It was a bad day.
I unplugged my mouse, my date and time were correct, and then when I go to Boot I see USB boot (option to enable or disable), USB to LAN Device PXE Boot (enable or disable) and then EFI (no options for this at all…?) and then nothing else. Please help me! Also in the Information tab of Bios settings it says Hard Disk not detected…
If you were unable to find the Legacy / UEFI settings in BIOS or if changing them did not help, move on and try the rest of the steps in the video. What was the result of the diagnostic scan?
This is helpful but I still have this error. I swapped out the ssd on my lenovo c340 14api to a bigger Western digital m.2 nvme drive and it is not recognised in the bios (updated to latest version today). There is no option to change the CSM, or to change to IDE as all the other advice online says. Lenovo Vantage says everything's updated.

I have a Lenovo V15 G2 ITL. It came with a M.2 drive and Windows 11. I added a 2Tb SATA SSD fully working multibootable drive from another laptop. The BIOS detects the drive but there is no boot option for it. I guess there should be another Windows Boot Manager for it? After many failed attempts I decided to try to remove the M.2 drive. That resulted in Default Boot Device Missing or Boot Failed error message but still no boot manager for the SATA drive. So I installed the M.2 drive again and everything works fine but still no option for booting from the SATA drive. Is this possible at all and then how can I do this?
My model is a Yoga 7 14IAL7. When I open my laptop, it says: Setup Confirmation Default Boot Device Missing or Boot Failed. Insert Recovery Media and Hit any key Then Select ‘Boot Manager’ to choose a new Boot Device or to Boot Recovery Media I pressed “Ok” and it took me to the “Please select boot device” screen, but there were no boot devices for me to pick from. Do you know what I have to do to fix my laptop? I think that maybe the hard drive might have to be adjusted, but I don’t know for sure. Thank you!

Good to hear advice about the cmos battery needing to be replaced, if settings in the bios are not being saved. There are alot of people that don't know that. Anyway, good vid.👍
If the diagnostic test showed your Hard Drive to be healthy, or if you were unable to run the diagnostic test, your next step would be to try an install Windows.

I have a Lenovo Yoga 6 laptop, my 1 yr old managed to spill milk on this morning (not a lot but apparently enough!!) now I am getting this screen whenever I turn it on saying “setup notice default boot device missing or boot failed insert recovery media and hit any key then select boot manager to choose a new boot device or boot recovery media” so I am assuming something happened internally to the hardware/hard drive 😢 I have watched several RUclips videos on how to possibly fix that error message but cannot for the life of me figure out how to get into the BIOS menu. I’ve tried Fn2 Fn1 buttons over and over on startup. I don’t have the screwdriver to get into the back of the laptop to take out the hard drive atm so I am just wondering if you have any idea if it is even worth trying to save, or if you have any other possible ideas I could try without actually opening up the laptop? I would much rather not have to go spend $800 on a new laptop but I have to have one for school (I am working on my bachelors in computer information systems) thank you ahead of time for any suggestions/help at all!!!! And ❤your channel!!!!
1. After a liquid spill, you want to first make sure the computer is 100% dry. You would turn your computer off immediately by pressing and holding the power button until the computer turns off. Then you would disassemble the computer as much as your comfortable with, at least trying to remove the bottom case. Then you would turn it on its side and let dry for a couple days. Have you done this yet or are you sure the computer is dry? 2. I would take a look at the HDD and possible 'reseat' it as seen here. If you need tools, you can visit a local shop or you can see tools in the Repair Tools list here: www.amazon.com/shop/pcmonkey
Hi, I have a Lenovo G585 . I keep getting the inaccessible boot device, how do I fix it. Just to add on I was factory restarting my laptop and the battery died in the process of it still restarting ( I live in South Africa, so we have a lot of loadsheading meaning I could not keep it on the charger). Please help
Most likely the Operating System (OS) has been damaged during the reset. It would most likely need to be installed. If you can run the diagnostic scan here to make sure the Hard Drive (HDD) is healthy, then do so. If not, just reinstall the OS as seen here; How To Install Windows 10 onto a Lenovo: ruclips.net/video/dxmJOYXkhPU/видео.html How To Create Windows 10 Install Media for Free: ruclips.net/video/YbC4jZVwQm4/видео.html How To Install Windows 11 onto a Lenovo: ruclips.net/video/NWZQ_mcHcho/видео.html How To Create Windows 11 Install Media for Free: ruclips.net/video/dacx6WRkIJs/видео.html Purchase Windows 10 & 11 Install Media in the Repair Tools List Here: www.amazon.com/shop/pcmonkey

Is there anyone Can help? My Ideapad 320 cannot enter windows/OS. On BIOS Information, 2 Harddisk, CPU, RAM are detected. But, Preinstalled OS Licensed contains "No DPK", and OA3 Key ID contains "0000000". I have tried change boot mode, SATA controller mode, Load default mode, and use USB Boot Mode for reinstall windows. But everything is failed. Do you know why? What should I do?
Can you find any Repair or Recovery options in BIOS? Also, did anything happen before this issue started? Liquid spill, overheating, a Windows update, etc?
@PC_Monkey there is no repair or recovery option in my BIOS. It was working normally without anything happened. I'm totally confused this issue occured suddenly when I turn my laptop on yesterday
Please sir, could you help me, im a Legion 5 Pro 16ITH6H user, accidentally deleted my boot partition, when i tried to reinstall it with gpt usb stick (my bios doesn't have legacy/uefi option) the usb iwas not detected. I tried to disable secure boot but to no avail. Tried many other possible solutions; Reset factory setting, defaul setup etc, i even managed to recreate usb instalation eith rufus 15 times just to tey the combination of settings like ntfs / fat32 / mbr style / gpt style. But still... None of those working.

Unfortunately I arrived to the endless loops of booting. I watched your video and did the steps but it's still stuck on the boot screen. What should I do?

This happened to me off the back of trying to get a second monitor connected as my laptop as stopped accepting my second monitor. When I hit f2 on the reset to starts the Bios menu (I think that’s what it’s called), I don’t know how to change the boot priority order. When I click the Boot tab, there are just several options that you can either click enable or disable, of Which they’re all currently selected as enable. So it get stuck at this stage.

If its still under warranty, be careful with DIY things. Sometimes, simply opening the computer may void the warranty. It may be best in some situations to return it or get a warranty repair instead of DIY

2. Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?
I did the removed cmos battery and it is now no longer showing nothing Except for a blank screen.
I waited 30 minutes and plugged it back in just to put that in there
I have a Lenovo V145-15AST and it wont boot up. It keeps on saying "Media Test Failure, Check Cable" and its a PXE-E61. Please help me
Sounds like your on the correct video. Have you tried the steps seen here?
Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?
Good to hear advice about the cmos battery needing to be replaced, if settings in the bios are not being saved. There are alot of people that don't know that. Anyway, good vid.👍
Thanks !! Glad this video was helpful :):)
I have G500s touch. Can't get to diagnostics page with enter , f1 or f2. Goes right to Recovery boot config data file missing
If the diagnostic test showed your Hard Drive to be healthy, or if you were unable to run the diagnostic test, your next step would be to try an install Windows.

If the install fails, and you were unable to run the diagnostic test, perhaps your Hard Drive is bad. It should then be replaced.
I have a Lenovo Yoga 6 laptop, my 1 yr old managed to spill milk on this morning (not a lot but apparently enough!!) now
I am getting this screen whenever I turn it on saying “setup notice default boot device missing or boot failed insert recovery media and hit any key then select boot manager to choose a new boot device or boot recovery media” so I am assuming something happened internally to the hardware/hard drive 😢 I have watched several RUclips videos on how to possibly fix that error message but cannot for the life of me figure out how to get into the BIOS menu. I’ve tried Fn2 Fn1 buttons over and over on startup. I don’t have the screwdriver to get into the back of the laptop to take out the hard drive atm so I am just wondering if you have any idea if it is even worth trying to save, or if you have any other possible ideas I could try without actually opening up the laptop? I would much rather not have to go spend $800 on a new laptop but I have to have one for school (I am working on my bachelors in computer information systems) thank you ahead of time for any suggestions/help at all!!!! And ❤your channel!!!!
1. After a liquid spill, you want to first make sure the computer is 100% dry. You would turn your computer off immediately by pressing and holding the power button until the computer turns off. Then you would disassemble the computer as much as your comfortable with, at least trying to remove the bottom case. Then you would turn it on its side and let dry for a couple days. Have you done this yet or are you sure the computer is dry?
2. I would take a look at the HDD and possible 'reseat' it as seen here. If you need tools, you can visit a local shop or you can see tools in the Repair Tools list here: www.amazon.com/shop/pcmonkey
Hi, I have a Lenovo G585 . I keep getting the inaccessible boot device, how do I fix it. Just to add on I was factory restarting my laptop and the battery died in the process of it still restarting ( I live in South Africa, so we have a lot of loadsheading meaning I could not keep it on the charger). Please help
Most likely the Operating System (OS) has been damaged during the reset. It would most likely need to be installed. If you can run the diagnostic scan here to make sure the Hard Drive (HDD) is healthy, then do so. If not, just reinstall the OS as seen here;

This happened to me off the back of trying to get a second monitor connected as my laptop as stopped accepting my second monitor.
