Happy Saturday. Sadly, I got the no bootable device error on my laptop this morning, and was worried it was something really bad. This had happened before though though and I fixed it. It turned out simply by unplugging the cable and re plugging it in again, fixed the situation, so no big worries there. I am going to order a new laptop though because I am thinking about getting a cyber security certificate, and can't do that with this beloved, old thing. Have you ever gotten the no bootable device error? Are you able to fix computer issues yourself or do you call in the big guns?

Thanks, well that one was...but then it started popping up some other weird message. I managed to get rid of that one by deleting the program. I never use it anyway.

Yes, I tried the restart options. It wasn't working..but fortunately reconnecting the cable did. There is a list of about 6 relatively easy things you can do if you get that no bootable device error.

You may luck out and it will never happen to you. However, if your lappy is older it is inevitable something will fail at some point.

Last time when it was acting up, I couldn't fix it. I took it to a friend who works on puters.

I have had it at least twice on this computer, but it is on its last legs.

@snowy22315 I mostly use my iPad. That may be why I haven’t seen it ?
