      If your AMD Motherboard doesn't boot from the hard disk drive but can boot from the optical drive, first check the cable running from the disk to the disk controller board. Ensure both ends are securely plugged in. Also, check the drive type in the standard CMOS setup. It's also important to back up your hard drive, as all hard disks can break down at any time.
