I can't find such an on installation disk so will try the find the right HD drivers for this model computer download on a USB key. Any ideas?
Hello:
Here is the link for the driver sata for your model:
Just download it and do not run it.
The motherboard in your model has major problems with the drives out and that the results in the hard drive and DVD drive from the BIOS endangered.
It could happen to your model, it's why W7 cannot find the hard drive.
You will need to download and install this free program.
After installing 7 - Zip, right-click on the Sata driver you downloaded and select 7 - zip option in the list.
Select extract to: I leave extract the name of the file and extract the exe file in a folder of driver.
Once you have the file, open it and copy the contents of the folder on a drive portable usb flash without the src folder.
With the flash player and the installation of W7 media connected to the computer, boot from the installation of W7 media.
After selecting the install now option, select the training - Advanced menu, Options and select the option load a driver.

Installation of Windows XP on TecraS3 with a 320 GB SATA hard drive
Hallo,
during the installation of Windows XP on a Tecra S3-SATA hard drive is not discovered.Details:
Laptop: Toshiba Tecra S3, model PTS30E
Hard drive: Toshiba MK3252GSX 320 S - ATA
Driver used: raid-drv - 20071023162302.zip (from Toshiba)
Toshiba-support document: TSB001272For the installation of Windows I used correspondent support-Toshiba-document 'TSB001272' the external driver for SATA. The disk with the driver is used for installation, but the hard drive is still unknown.
PS: The Linux Suse 10.2 installation runs without problem.
Question: Who knows the good driver for Windows XP? Thank you.
Manfred Alpers

I think you mean this Toshiba document:
+ How to install Windows XP or Windows 2000 on a Toshiba computer with Serial ATA RAID drives.
http://209.167.114.38/support/TechSupport/TSBs/all/-TSB001272.htmHey buddy the RAID driver can be found on the Toshiba driver page.
Use this driver as part of the tool called nLite. You can create a new XP CD and could include the RAID driver using this free tool.I did this procedure several times and it still worked!

Original title: new hard drive Blues.
got sata disk hard western digital 500 GB installed, I have tried to download winxp home, got a blue screen
stop: 0x0000007b (0xF78D663c, 0xc0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000
I need help
Hi aqm0207,
How you try to install Windows XP Home Edition?
You may receive an error message "Stop 0x0000007B" in the following scenarios:
(a) a device driver that your computer boot controller needs is not configured to start during the startup process.
(b) a device driver that needs your computer startup controller is damaged.
(c) It can also occur if the hard drive in the BIOS configuration is bad.
You can check if the SATA hard drive is correctly configured in the BIOS (Basic Input Output System) & can also update the BIOS. If you are not comfortable to do, you can contact the manufacturer of your computer for help.
Note: Changing the BIOS / chipset can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/chipset can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
You can also check this link:Advanced troubleshooting of errors "Stop 0x0000007B" in Windows XP
Hope the helps of information. Please post back and we do know.

Windows Vista will not complete installation on SATA hard drive
I tried to install Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit on a new desktop computer Acer X 1200 (less than 1 year). Vista recognizes the drive, format and copy all the files on the disk installation. Then restarts, is preparing to launch for the first time and get to the part where it says installation finished and hangs there. The green progress bar does not move and it hangs indefinitely. The hard drive is SATA and I put a new disc in hard, but exactly the same thing happened. The motherboard has no IDE port on it and there is no option in the BIOS for the IDE emulation. At this point I think the motherboard is bad, but I am working also on a laptop HP 1 year with SATA hard drive that does exactly the same thing. The two systems are pre-installed with Vista Home Premium. The two systems see the hard drive, but will not complete installation. I even tried to run the WD Tools Data Lifeguard before installation with no luck at all. There is no error message or error code, just of hangs and end no installation. You have any suggestions for this? Thank you.
What was my problem I bought the equipment... like motherboard, memory, cpu, and video
Vista would not be install.would blow on the end of the installation so I tried to put it natively and it worked!

HP Pavilion s5570t desktop computer: single SATA hard drive configured as RAID in BIOS
Our small computer lab has two offices of Pavilion Slimline s5570t that we have recently upgraded to Windows 10. I noticed that in the configuration of the BIOS for the SATA hard drive, it is defined as RAID. I don't know why. The thing that brought this to my attention, is that the software Intel Rapid storage technology constantly shows about 25% CPU use and there high usage of the disk when computers start first which makes them unusable until the software installs.
My question is can I change the setting of the BIOS SATA AHCI with no problems and that will solve the problem? The Intel rapid storage technology software version is v9.5.7.1002. It is obviously old and I could update, but I wonder if the real issue is the BIOS setting.
Thank you
JohnD
Thank you for the additional information.
I'm not sure it tells you, but I changed these settings without having to reinstall the operating system. I suppose it could be correct.

Install SATA hard drive in HP A720n
Hi, I use an old HP Pavilion A720n PC, has an ASUS motherboard. Computer is maybe 7-10 years. Don't ask me why, and I can't give an answer but love to tinker and learn to use older and newer computers. These days, the computer industry is, of course, will (or gone) to the SATA drives. I know little about them. But I see two ports or connectors on the motherboard, 1 is labeled 1 Sata and one is labeled SATA 2 - one is black, one is white. I bought a couple of adapters, but something does not appear here. Readers have 15-pin, then we're about 7 pins, and I see a 4 pin - (small rods, similar to the small connectors used to power of diskettes, etc.) on all of the power from the power supply connections.
I don't know if I need one or two red Connector cables, for SATA and power supply connector or just pin 15 or just pin 7. Can I put several (SATA) hard drive in the computer or limited to one? And the computer will have to change in the bios or any where when I switch to SATA, if I can go. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you
SsmileyThanks, Vidya, what I'm doing is trying to decide on a new computer, HP, or keep these two computers A720n. I have a Compaq, most recent, and a Mac book prorunning software mac Windows amd. So the 'old' may be in the form of hobby. Thanks for the info, I've touched the thumb, but not sure that it worked? I really apprehciate the response and INFO. Ssmiley

Can you put a 500 g SATA hard drive in Pavilion a750w?
Can you put a 500 g SATA hard drive in Pavilion a750w? The bios is version v3.26, and the operating system is XP with SP3. 40 gig HD is full and you are looking to replace it but do not know what the size limit is with this bios version.
Here are the specifications of your HP Pavilion a705w desktop. This is based on the assumption that you converted the 5 and 0 and the fact that you mentioned a 40 GB hard drive.
You already have the most current version of the BIOS of your computer and running the most recent service pack of Windows XP. Your computer and the operating system should support a drive of 500 GB without problem. The only problem is that your computer isn't any SATA ports, only 66/100 IDE (PATA). Look at local retailers and online for the IDE drives.

Desktop HP Pavilion a420n of does not recognize SATA hard drive
Hello
I installed a SATA hard drive as a second hard drive in my office in a420n Paviion and it is not recognized by the computer. I don't belong in the BIOS to enable the SATA drives, only IDE drives. (The main hard drive is IDE). I just upgraded to firmware BIOS Revision 3.08 (11/2004, which is the last on the HP website) and there is still no place to enable SATA only drives in the BIOS screen.
Of course, the drive may not be detected in Windows XP either.
I saw an ad on the web about SATA drives that need drivers to work with the a420n, but I don't know if it's true. A man speaks by pressing the F6 key while rebooting, so you can load the driver at the time, but by pressing F6 does nothing to interrupt the normal boot on my machine process.
Can anyone help?
Thank you
Bob
p.s. I've tried 2 different, an older SATA drives and a brand new - same result
If the BIOS does not info on the drive connected, then nothing else does. It could be that this controller simply does not work. On a Board that old, is probably not an effort worth trying a material difficulty.
Using an external enclosure for the drive, it is probably the best bet.

What's a 2 TB SATA hard drive internal-compatible with the HP Paviliion Elite m9510f?
Hello
I have a desktop PC HP Pavilion Elite m9510f running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit and want to install an internal 2 TB SATA hard drive.
I would like to know if this computer (see details of configuration below) supports this 2 TB HDD:
(1) can I use it as a secondary (non-bootable) drive?
(2) what like a bootable disc, it'll work?
(3) do I need to create multiple partitions or a single 2 TB can be created/formatted?

---The word "support" has a connotation that is specific to HP - it usually means were that he tested with, sold with, etc. I do not think that these discs were available when this system was built/designed, and thus the moniker "supported" official cannot be assured.
Everything that is said - I see not where there is a problem with this player. I have a m9600t HP of a similar vintage - I swapped my Seagate 750 GB drive for a 7200 RPM Hitachi 2 TB drive and added an another 2 TB "Green" WD drive as a secondary drive. No problems.
I have used Ghost of Norton to clone the old boot HDD on the Hitachi. Made sure the D: drive Alias: "recovery partition" was kept the same size and then said Norton to use all the space of the new to develop on the c: drive. Works very well. The WD drive - I partitioned as a large drive E:. Made sure to partition to NTFS.
Your mileage may vary - but I think it should work correctly...
