      If your Intel Motherboard doesn't boot from the hard disk drive but boots from the optical drive, first, check the cable running from the disk to the disk controller board, ensuring 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 are capable of breaking down at any time.
