My HDD isn't being recognized by my BIOS after installing Ubuntu, and I'm kinda concerned because I made Ubuntu install without wiping the drive, maybe that's why?
I don't know, please help, I kinda need this computer to play games with my friends.
Thanks,

Is it that drive is not seen at all in BIOS list of drives, or that drive is not seen in boot menu list? If UEFI/BIOS is not seeing drive, I do not think any tools will work. Double check connections both power and SATA to make sure they are firmly connected. Also check UEFI settings. It is possible on most new systems to turn off a drive, may sure your drive is on.

My BIOS can see the drive, it just won't boot.
