Hardware Faults (SATA Cable)

This is a human fault because someone has not placed the SATA Cable into the motherboard correctly because half of the connection is not plugged in. This stops the computer from booting up correctly because it thinks that there is no operating system and the POST (Power On Self Test) kept repeating and looking for the hard drive

This can be done by replacing the hard drive and when plugging in the SATA Cable in to the motherboard and the hard drive and then nocking the cable which then becomes lose     

Also SATA stands for Serial Advanced Technology Attachment and it communicates between the CPU and the hard drive
