Installed XP 'clean' and now my slave drive is unreadable.

I click it and it asks me to format it. BIOS it reads as a 500 GB drive. Disk management it only reads 137. I discovered the properties of it, and it says that the device is functioning correctly, but the file system is RAW format. I'm trying to check disk and it reads as BAD. Nothing was wrong with the disc until I had to format my C: drive. Does anyone know how to get my computer to recognize it again?

Disconnect the slave (remove the pwr connector)
Run MSUpdate, you may need to run several times to finish all updates.
You have installed a prior version of Windows XP sp1 and thus does not have hd support.

    Hello

    You will need to reverse the clean boot, as it is either incidental compared to
    the real cause of the problem. What, where you try to fix initially using the cleanboot?

    You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If so you can try the configuration - control panel
    The Device Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click the driver UPDATE - then
    Right click on the device and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

    Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is
    CTRL + ALT + DEL and the processes tab find EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - and then
    on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
    by tapping F8 as you start several times.

    Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
    That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
    Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
    Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
    field efforts.

    Hi, I installed windows 7 and now my Blu - ray drive does not even appear not at all, even in the device mgr.

    Hi Radlfly,

    I see that you have some problems with the burner blu - ray on Windows 7. I'll help you with this problem.

    1. What is the brand and model of the computer?

    2. What is the brand and model of the blu - ray player?

    3. have you made changes on the computer recently?

    4 is the issue confined to this hard drive?

    I want you to know that Blu - Ray is a patented technology, so need the codec appropriate to buy and this is why we cannot include it in our operating system.

    To play a Blu - ray disc, you must use a non-Microsoft program that supports Blu - ray playback and a device that can play Blu - ray discs.

    The oldest is compared to newer operating systems, it is less likely to work.  If you have been happy with the help of Photoshop 7 then you should be happy with the old operating system as well.  Your options are either to return to a system that supports your software or to buy new software to go with the new system.  CS6 products are still selling as far as I know.  In addition, your only option is to subscribe to the cloud of Creative for Photoshop CC.
