fault is your Hard disk is not detecting by the bios.

1) Check the IDE cable

2) Clean the IDE connectors

3) Check the jumper status : keep it master if no other device connect to the same cable

4) change the port if above 1-3 steps not work

5) Update the BIOS if above 1-4 steps not work

6) run diagnostic on motherboard related to IO / check the south bridge works find
