[computer-tech-support: 8306] Slow bios, not booting dvd, err: no operating system found

Problems on Dell dv9000 series laptop. It had win7 barely surviving
viruses.
At first i would randomly get hdd error when I ran bios(Pheonix) HDD
tests. I took this HDD out, plugged in another comp with usb hdd
enclosure. ran chkdisk disk had a few error which chkdisk fixed. plug
the HDD back in lappy with same errors and bios hanging on initial
screen for long time. and unable to boot win7 installation dvd.

Since this laptop had two hdd. i took this out and replaced it with
the second hdd. now i dont get hdd errors in bios tests, but still no
dvd boot.

I was able to ubuntu live usb though, and both hdd and dvd where
visible.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
