You should set the boot device priority of your Toshiba laptop. To do this, you need to access the BIOS setup and set the hard disk as the first boot device. Restart your computer, press and hold "F2" or "Delete" key while the computer is booting (starting). Search for the advanced settings and set the boot device priority into hard disk drive. Don't forget to save your settings.

Note: Do not try to experiment other settings as it may affect your entire computer system.

Regards,

Tintin

Boot the computer and open the bios options. CHange the boot order. If that doesn't work, check the connection of the Hard Disk Drive to the motherboard.
