Hello , I'm having an issue with my Lenovo thinkpad T41. When i go into BIOS my HD is not being detected , I've tried installing Ubuntu 10.0.4 and it goes to a desktop but when I try installing the HD comes up blank and when I push continue an error message comes up saying "no root location" I am pretty new to diagnosing and fixing computers. Can someone please give me some advice on what this issue may be? Thank You

I know this question is from 9 years ago, but I saw it and thought I'd answer just for kicks.
It sounds like your hard drive is dead. If both your BIOS and Ubuntu couldn't detect it, then that rules out software, so it has to be hardware. You'll need a new hard drive. There is no info here on iFixit about what hard drive you'll need, but I'm sure you can dig around online and find something. Here is a guide on removing the motherboard (IBM ThinkPad T41 Motherboard Replacement) ; in steps 36 and 37 it addresses the hard drive area. After you remove the cover, you should be able to unplug and lift out the hard drive. While you're at it (if you still have the computer after all these years), you might as well create a guide (Creating a Repair Guide) so you can help someone else who may be having the same problem.
Let me know how it goes!
