    Hello everyone, I have following problem with Acer Aspire 5101awlmi / original configuration /. Not always but BIOS does not recognize the HDD and optical drive. If you recognize them before entering the Windows XP release is krashva / blue screen / and reboot. I tried all sorts of options written on this topic - loosening of the screws / SMOS battery is running / HDD frame - tested working, removing the battery the laptop BIOS settings / last model / - off Boot on lan, organize Boot of devices such as first HDD, etc. In giving difolt settings after reboot it is possible to recognize in BIOS HDD and optical drive. When you install Windows no problems at normal reboot the laptop during the installation. But off for minutes or longer - Device missing in BIOS, etc.

    Where is the problem?
