I am working on a friends HP Mini 210-2100 which he rolled down the stairs. It is getting a combination of errors so not sure if one would cause the other or both have individual problems. It gives me a hard Disk 1 (3f1) error when booting. The only option I get is F2 Systems Diagnostics. Pressing this gives me a Bios Application error 501. If I try to go into the bios at startup I get the hard disk error. I am not sure if dropping it caused a crashed hard disk or the bios error is causing the drive error. Can anyone point me in the direction on where to start looking? I am pretty hardware savvy so if I need to check a cable or drive or anything just let me know. One person is a 501 error post mentioned about a cable being unplugged or askew which cause the problem but not exactly sure which cable I would be looking to check for that. Thanks in advance for any help. Rick
