Installation issue

My computer froze and turned on with the folder and question mark sign.

I restarted and did what I read online in Disk Utility by repairing. I don't have Time Machine (at least I don't think so) so I tried to install OS XLion and it's asking me to select the disk to install to, but nothing is appearing.


Any help would be great!

There might be possibility that the hard drive is not detected due to couple of reason.

  • Faulty HDD connecting cable.
  • HDD failure.


Please try Apple Diagnostics Test: (To identify if any hardware issue)
