    Please let us know the full model number of the laptop?
    Have you made any recent changes on your laptop?
    Is the hard disk detected In BIOS? You can check if the HDD name is displayed next to HDD model name in information tab.

    When I switch on my Acer Aspire i7 it only shows the Logo and then black screen with "No Booting Device". The mouse doesn't work and there is no cursor. Please help

    @AustineD7 Press and hold the power button for at least 5 seconds till the machine has completely shut off. Then turn it back on an immediately start tapping the F2 key to access the BIOS menu. Under the Info tab, is the hard disk drive HDD or solid state drive SSD or eMMC drive described by a model and serial number? Jack E/NJ

    @RY Press and hold the power button for about 5 secs till the machine completely shuts off. Then turn it back on again and ***immediately*** press and hold the ALT key while tapping the F10 key. If a recovery screen appears, follow the directions below to either reset the machine to a  factory fresh state (lose personal files) or refresh the system while saving your personal files.
