On reading your mail it looks very much like a BIOS problem.
Most probably, the "auto" HDD configuration in your BIOS
settings is not working.
The live CD "kicks" the HDD system and it then acquires
its "correct" settings. After that a soft reboot will work.
Diagnosing this problem is probably difficult. Ask a local hardware
expert to look over the cabling.
