i have a HP Pavilion dv71135nr. It came with Vista installed (sorry - I HATE Vista!). There are 2 hard drives in my computer - a 250 gig w/Vista, and a 500 gig w/Windows 7, it was suggested that i upgrade my BIOS, I did from the HP site.
Now my computer will not boot. i come up with a blank - black page with a blinking curser in the left top side of my screen.
I have tried all the fixes I can find on the internet with no avail.
Is there any way to fix this without reinstalling my OS's, I don't want to lose my programs and information! Not Again!, I welcome and will try all suggestions, and please know that I have tried everything mentioned on the Recovery Console.
The only way my computer will boot now - is to hit the escape key and choose the boot option, and make it boot to the 2nd hard drive. Is there anyway that I can force my machine to automatically boot to the second drive (Windows 7), this is currently not an option in my BIOS. It only shows when i use the escape and F9 option on startup.
Thanks so much in advance for any suggestions and fixes.
Sincerely,
