To be honest I don’t care about the video and it won’t be helpful.

What is inside the menu setting hard disk boot priority on your bios? It’s the first option in the photo.

ok....well im not going to pull teeth. I'm sure some other member has drastically more patience. but I would look around your BIOS generally under chipset for your IDE/SATA controller and make sure its either enabled or atleast in SATA (AHCI) mode. Then try again.

Of course thats assuming you have checked things like.

- Cables
- Power
- Drives
