This is the first time that I have used one of these forums and I am not very technically minded so please be gentle with me.
I bought my daughters two Acer aspire one notebooksmodel zg5 with the following numbers Atheros AR5BXB63
they both have the same problem on boot up

Bo Bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key Unquote
From the little I know about computers this translates to me that the notebook is expecting to find some thing attached to it which it has never had and a disc drive which it does not have either.
Can you please help this heckled dad sort out his daughters computers.
Thank you

Boot order is set in BIOS on such a manner so that the notebook tries to boot from LAN first.
Access BIOS and change boot order so that either HDD was first. -
thank you for your help there is no HDD showing boot order only has Lgacy PCI Device. in setupHDD Model Name shows none

You bought them new? I mean sure you sure there even are HDDs inside?
BIOS doesn't detect them but you should be able to hear the HDD or feel vibrations- it's all very faint but still...
