    I removed the hard drive from an ASUS N56VZ and since than its automatically enter the BIOS. In the BIOS everything seems to be all right, but as soon i save and exit, after restart its entering again without any manual action.

    There is no difference if i replace the hard drive, or change it, it keeps coming back. Any idea?

    Does it show the hard drive is detected while you're in the BIOS.

    It does.
    The detection is correct. It's detecting with no problem the old one, the new one, or even if it has no HDD.
    It also recognise, and save the setting changes of anything.
    Loading the default doesnt do any differnece. (its load as it should)

    The HDDs are work in an other laptop. (well, they never had problem anyway)

    Seems to be everything is all right. (Its inclouded the keyboard, F2 and F9 or any other key dont stuck (someone had ask it RL)

    I working with hardware since 2 decents, but i never got a problem like this before.

    Did you pull them straight from another laptop with Windows installed on them?

    I did, but the problem had been solved not long ago.
    I had put back the plastic cover parts, and suddenly its works.
    If i remove it, its doing it again.
    Strange, i know, but this was the solution.
    Thank you to helping me.
    (Usually I dont have any plastic cover on, it makes the cooling system more effective. Things from the Golden age of overlocking doesnt let things works this day :D)

    Hmm, that is strange. Make sure the connection is solid/secure. If it comes loose, the connector or the pins could be damaged!
