Pls Help. Can't detect hdd Hard disk in boot

[Elspeth]

could it be the psu that's faulty and causing not enough power to be supplied to the hdd?

this is on a HP pavilion slimline ....

i tried everything. just switched the hdd to another but still the same error:

error: no boot disk has been detected

immediately i see the above after bios booting up...

hdd fails intermittently...

hope some kind guru can help out ...

cant see ur pic... but i experienced wat u described twice... first time is hdd died, got a new one, plucked in and everything works fine again.... then now the new one same thing again... no time to replace/fix it yet... but i suspect is the hdd died again...

both of the time, when i swtich on the comp i will hear a beep sound.
