Hey, so a tech came over yesterday to replace my touchpad(never got fixed, says he needs more parts) and shortly after, after suspending my computer, unpon reboot i got the blue screen. When i reboot the computer stays at the vaio screen for a while and then finally goes to a black screen saying there is not operating system installed. I put in a win XP cd, and when i try to do a repair, there was no operating system found. When i try to do a new installation, the neither of my partitions can be found.
on another note- i tried to install win xp onto my external usb hard drive, and the CD wont let me do that, it says its no accessable or something.
Any ideas
-
what did the tech person do? Have you made sure the HD is connected properly?
-
the tech opened the computer to replace mouse pad, im wondering if there is a loose cable on the hard drive. I havent opened up the computer yet, i just looked at the tutorial for exposeing the hard drive and it does not look like the easiest thing to do...

so i took the hard drive out and connected it to a external adapter, and it spun but i could not access the drive. Is the HD shot? could the tech guy have damaged it when replacing the mouse pad?
