Add the new hard drive, windows does not start now

OK, ill be as specific as possible here

Ive always had a few hard drives in my computer at all times

A few days ago, I had problems with my windows 7 install that I tabled to the installation while I had all of my hard drives connected at installation time.

2 days ago I decided to start over fresh with a windows 7 ultimate 64-bit. I also bought a new 64gig OCZ SSD for my OS.

I disconnected all my drives except the SSD and performed a complete installation of windows 7 and all a well worked first go again.
I then started to shut down my computer and adding a hard drive to the times and re starting and in ensuring that the drive letters came back how I got them I had on my previous built and changing them were nessisary.

I installed my 5 drives in this case and the computer rebooted fine and everything was perfect until!

installed hard drives
1 SSD 64 GB
2. 1.5 TB of storage
3. 1.5 TB of storage
4. 320 GB movies
5. 320 GB games

I copied all HDD 4. movies (only movies and music files) on disk 3.
then I removed the hard drive of 4 and replaced by a new hard disk 1.5 TB and restarted the computer
the computer starts very well and once loaded windows I coppied the movies and music of the new 1.5 TB hard drive back.

now, I had

installed hard drives
1 SSD 64 GB
2. 1.5 TB of storage
3. 1.5 TB of storage
4 movies 1.5 to
5. 320 GB games

This is were the problem started. I restarted my computer and it wouldn't start. He gets the message of realteck and just a cursor flashes and remains like that permanently.

If I remove the sata cable to the back of the hard disc 4 the computer starts fine
I can plug the cable in just before the windows screen comes up and the hard drive works fine and is FLEURIDAS and all.
but leave it plugged during the start of what the computer does nothing

things I've tried, I made sure all my boot priorities are pointing to the SSD drive
I have turned all devices normal priming and the hard drive with the OS selected
Ive made sure that all the drive letters are correct on each drive
Ive tried to get started with the windows 7 CD to get to the repair section and I click Repair tool, start it recconises there is a problem but informs me it can not be fixed automatically and asks me if I want to send the information to microsoft (which me).

It's really made me this one any help will be great and thanks in advance

just in case sick leave my system specs

EVGA X 58 mobo
INTEL Core i7 940

  • Satellite L670 - the system HARD drive recovery does not start

    Hello together,

    I have a problem with my laptop. I installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, that the laptop came with Win7 Home Premium 32 bit.
    Now I want to restore the original Windows Home Premium. On the laptop is a second partition with a folder named "disk HARD recovery.

    When I hold the button '0' on start nothing happens. The beginning of doesn´t of system recovery.

    Can you help fix the problem.

    Thank you and best regards,

    Hello

    This does not work because you have installed Win 7 64 bit as you said here:
    > I installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, that the laptop came with Win7 Home Premium 32 bit.
    But have you tried also pressing F8-> fix my computer-> drive HARD recovery?
    Try this

    Otherwise, drive HARD recovery does not work because the boot manager has been changed or damaged as a result of the new install of Win 7 and this is why you cannot load HARD drive recovery.
    That is why it s always recommended to create a recovery disc before changing anything on the HARD drive.

    What to tell buddy you need recovery disks. I guess that you have a European model for laptop

    You can order the recovery discs here:

  • had to install the new hard drive, windows key does not

    My hard drive died in my Inspiron 660. I ordered a new hard drive and a recovery Dell USB key. A recovery key for Windows 8 pro based on my recommended by Dell service tag. I installed the new drive and used the recovery key to install Windows 8 pro. I then used a third-party tool to get the product key from the BIOS. The product key does not work. I wonder if the product key on the BIOS isn't for Windows 8, Windows 8 pro. If so, the wrong recovery key recommended by Dell.

  • How to run the installation on a 5 GB pcmcia hard drive, it does not start?

    I have a computer dell laptop, which has a non-functional drive Bay, so I use a 5 GB kingston pcmcia hard drive. Recognizes the xp home installation cd and copy of files, only I does not start when the system is restarted, is it a boot disk to start just xp? The bios doesn't have the ability to start from pcmcia, only an ehernet PCMCIA.

    Can I create a boot cd which recognises the pcmcia from the Setup disk, or add the driver pcmcia on a boot disk and which record a bootable CD?

    Hello

    Thanks for choosing Microsoft Community!

    You have reached the right forum. Try to solve this problem together.

    If I understand correctly, you are trying to install XP on a PCMCIA drive and the computer does not start after the installation files are copied during installation.

    Since then trying to install XP to a PCMCIA drive and the computer does not start after the installation files are copied during installation. In addition, the BIOS has not an option to boot from PCMCIA readers. So basically, you will not be able to install XP on the PCMCIA drive.

    Regarding the question on a boot disk, Microsoft provides no such discs. You will need to do a search online or in the stores of tech for such a disc, if it is available.

    Warning: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    Abrams,

    That's all I can help you.  These instructions are based on the Perc 5 / i controller, which I think you have on our system.  You have not specified the server so I just assumed that this is so.

    1. unscrew the hot spare that you just made.  Follow this link from Dell.
    http://support.Dell.com/support/eDOCS/storage/RAID/PERC5/en/UG/HTML/chapterh.htm#wp1061343

    2 follow the link for the installation of virtual disks - http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/storage/RAID/PERC5/en/UG/HTML/chapterh.htm#wp1069357

    This link has three steps to void, skip the step on "spare parts of designate hot."
    a. create the virtual disks and select virtual disk options.   -Online steps to create another disk group and add the new disk to the disk group.
    (b) designate the drives hot spares (optional). =>, YOU CAN SKIP THIS STEP
    c. initialize virtual disks. -online must do.  just do not initialize the incorrect disk.

    After the step #2 c, you should be able to access the drive in ESXi or command-line (list of nmp esxcli devices).

    And no, you cannot add this manaully until do you step #2 above which is to define the disk group, creating virtual disks and initialize the virtual disk.

    Good luck.

    can someone give me a clue? I can't add new greater than 2 TB drive to my vm on my upgraded vsphere 5.0. My data store is 6 TB and already read by vsphere... I create new virtual machine and add the new drive, but it limits again just 2 TB when I change 4 TB, the error message will appear.

    Hello.

    You will need to use a RDM in physical Compatibility Mode to achieve. As weinstein5 said, a VMDK cannot be greater than 2-to-512bytes. You can use the OS to spread over several 2 TB-512bytes VMDK, if that's what you really want.

    Good luck!
