    I shut it down, manualy, and started it up, and everything is normal.
    When I choose, start -> Shut down -> Restart .. same problem
    When I shut it down, all is OK
    What's problem with this...

    So you mean, when you restart the computer, the computer cannot find the Hard Drive?

        If you disconnect the drive can you get to the bios?

          Yes,
          problem only appears when I restart computer
          I shut it down by unplugging AC cable
          and when I start it up it is OK... everything is fine
          So, problem appears only when I choose Start -> Turn Off -> Restart
