    Hello.
    The following problem occurred literally just now.
    While working on a laptop (not very demanding game), he suddenly turned off. He was not connected to the power supply, he worked on the battery, so it was probably not the fault of overvoltage or the standard shutdown due to the low battery condition, just sudden, spontaneous switching off.
    After switching on, the message "No bootable device" appears. After checking in Bios, HDD Hitachi Travelstar 7K1000 2.5 "1TB (bought recently, some month) shows on the first page as HDD0. When boot boot menu (key f12) there is no option, no disk or boot pendrive (after connection to any usb).
    Optimistic version - disk
    Pessimistic version - motherboard.
    Has someone else idea, maybe met with a similar problem, or will confirm my version until I find the nearest site?

    Are you sure you have booted from the pendrive during startup? If you have an optical drive in a boot, run the bootable linux (or whatever it is based on) and check if it has access to the disk and its files.

    Yes, this option is definitely enabled, because it was from this pendrive that I installed the system on this disk. Unfortunately, I do not have access to any tiles with the system or MHDD, and rather soon I would not be able to do so without visiting the site.

    Upload photos from the BIOS bookmarks.

    Well, at this point, the key is to boot from the pendrive. The system or mhdd can be put on a pendrive with a friend or even in a library. It's better to do it yourself, because the service will fix it in half an hour, and it will pay for the work week :P

    The pendrive must be properly formatted so that the laptop can boot from it.

    Good gentlemen, I managed to solve the problem :) .
    I should try it at first, I was even going to, but the black scenarios took the lead.
    Either way, for unexplained reasons, the Legacy laptop has switched to Uefi mode. After setting Legacy, the equipment came to life.
    Is it possible to reset the BIOS in this way?

    BIOS reset to factory settings is performed in a different way.

    Yes, I know how the Biosu reset is done.
    In any case, the problem fixed by restoring the "Legacy" mode, thank you all for help, subject to close.
