    Hey guys,
    I have a Vaio SVE17 series SVE171290x. My ex gf went insane and
    broke the display and case, however there was no damage to the main board. I have since replaced the lcd and broken case, everything seems ok except the uefi bios is not recognizing any hard drive. I have tried three different hd's and bios just says Hard drive: None.
    Any ideas what this could be? I think its a bios setting problem,
    but how can I reset it? I have examined the mainboard with a magnifier and there is absolutely no visible damage.
    Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!
