When I turned on my laptop, the usual blue Dell logo screen (with press F2 to enter setup) came up followed by a blank screen where the cursor is at the top left flashing, the hard disk light is permanently on and it stays like that indefinitely. When I press F2 for setup, it won't go to setup.

Is your hdd making clicking noises while this is going on?
Jump to PostThe noise I was asking about would be when the computer first starts up. Hard drives that are going out sometimes will make clicking noise when it spins up.
Can you do a last good configuration?
