I've had this computer for almost a year and its given me constant problems, but now I'm completely locked out.
I bought a new HDD to replace the old disk because its Write and Read speeds were incredibly slow. I set the computer up to migrate Windows 10 to the new disk then left it for about 10 minutes and came back to find the computer was still running but the software migrating the OS was closed.
Nothing was running in task manager, I checked disk management and it was reading the disk was there but unallocated (Formatted to GTP). So I figured it just needed restarted, but once it turned back on it's stuck on a blank screen (both monitors were detecting the computer). I tried opening BIOS, it was unresponsive. I tried plugging one of the monitors into the chipset, nothing changed.
One of the times I got it to respond to the Keyboard with the start up beeping noise everytime I hit a key, but it hasn't done it since.
I'm currently resetting the CMOS by pulling the battery but I'm starting to thing I just need a fresh Windows 10 download.
Any ideas on how I can fix this without having to buy/reinstall Windows 10.
OS: Windows 10 (Updated a week ago)
Computer (motherboard): Lenovo Thinkcentre M70e
HDDs: 150GB and 1TB
RAM: 6GB
GC: Nividia GTX 710
CPU: 2.83 GHZ Quad-Core
Edit: After resetting CMOS I was able to get into BIOS, but I'm still working on getting the OS to boot.
Edit 2: I've confirmed both Harddrives won't boot. I know my way around a computer but I'm not a pro. Is there a way I can recover the OS using my 1tb harddrive on another computer?
