Re: Computer will not boot from harddrive

I am not entirely sure how it booted after replacing the battery, but
this sounds like a bios setting got cleared and/or reset.  My 10 year
old MB defaults to EFI on a bios reset and that will cause a failure
to boot.

I would try hitting the key to allow you to choose a boot device
(varies by bios maker) and see if you can choose the hard drive and
get it to boot, but if you have EFI in the bios and you installed it
as legacy bios then that will not boot.
