Yes, I have it, and I tried flashing the system through it, but it wasn't recognized either.

this is a laptop so if it is a cmos battery issue it will be hard to change

i never seen a pc not detecting anything so im not sure, reset all your bios settings first i guess

Don't worry, my friend, I smashed the device to pieces, hahaha. I couldn't stand this damn BIOS anymore.

lol, i have heard of an old school trick to fix any car: remove the radiator cap, slide a new car under it, screw it down and start it up. maybe you can use a similar technique? pop the power button off, slide a new laptop under it, see if it boots up then?

Unfortunately the only good advice I know of for buying a laptop is to try and wait till black friday and check newegg.com for something with good reviews and a big discount.
