No it didn't list the drive. If it had the driver that was cause the
problem
it would be much easier to solve the issue. From my understanding this
computer force shut down during a blackout and its being giving the same
screen everytime. Hard Drive was reformated and it still occurs.
Retry in two ways. One, delete the partition and then format it. If that
doesn't work, pop in another hard disk.
If that doesn't work, other hardware has failed or been damaged.
There is a possibility that it's just that the CMOS settings have corrupted.
Unplug the system, open it, remove the CMOS battery, find the CMOS CLEAR
jumper and move it to the CLEAR position. Wait a moment, move it back, put
the battery back, plug in and restart. If you can't find the jumper,
remove the battery and go for lunch. Take at least half an hour; enjoy the
lunch. That should be enough time to allow the charge to bleed and the
memory to clear.
Restart the system, and go into the BIOS and allow it to accept defaults as
appropriate. Set the system time and date; if the date is not incorrect
the CMOS memory did not clear, so go back and do it again. Save, exit,
reboot.
