    Which OS did you have installed? It sounds like the system isn't detecting the OS drive or the OS itself.

    You shouldn't need to reflash your BIOS, but you can if the original seller is wiling to provide the files. Have you tried resetting it (remove power and disconnect CMOS battery temporarily)? Which keyboard are you using?

    The bios itself is stored on non volatile storage, it's just the user settings that are not. So the lack of power wont have impacted the bios.
