Hello,
Try this 1
1) First check all the connections to your hard drive.
2) Go to CMOS settings and make sure that your hard drive is detected.
If you failed to see your hard drive in CMOS then select the option "Load default
settings" --> Save the settings and exit from the CMOS.
After restart again go to CMOS settings and check if your hard drive is detected.
If it still failed to detect the hard drive and show it to your in CMOS then the
problem is with the hard drive. If it's in warranty then approach to your nearest
service center for the replacement.
Good Luck

thanks for the answer but my laptop does not enter bios setup even after pressing f2.it has insyde h20 bios.
If F2 does not work to get into BIOS, try: Esc ... or F10 ... or F12 ... F1 ... Del.
In the case of Del , Esc , it may be possible you have to press the button various times.
Different bios can respond to different keys. If you know the motherboard model, try searching it on Google , etc. ... or direct on the Sony www site.
Hope it helps.
