I am not sure what I am missing here, but sure would appreciate a fresh take on my issue.
I am working on a Dell Inspiron 1520. I replaced the Intel MB, with a refurbished model and for the life of me cannot get it to recognize the hard drive in the bios. I ran the system diagnostic and got the following three errors:
Error Code 2000-0411 - Hardware Detect Error - Microphone Board not detected
2000-0141 - No drive detected
Error Code – 2000-0123 – Memory Integrity Test Failed
Address=0_4B37E680h, Actual-00000000h, Expected= 00000002h
Location = DIMM_A
So I replaced the RAM in both slots to the same size and ran the diagnostic again. Replacing the RAM cleared up the memory issues, but I still received the previous two errors.
I have tried every available option that I know of and that I could find online searching and all I have been able to find is a load of other folks that had the same problem and no one had an answer.
I have updated the bios and even tried to install a brand new hard drive (same exact hd as the old one). I stick the old hard drive in the external usb dock and can see the disk fine when using the system cd.
This is the error I get when just trying to boot up.
---No bootable devices--strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for setup utility, Press F5 to run onboard diagnostics.
So far I know that my hard drives are good, and I am half convinced that I got a foxtrot uniform motherboard, but I wanted to try every possible fix before hanging my head in defeat and coming to that conclusion.
I might just be missing something simple here, but it has me stumped.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated!
