  If the hard drive is recognized in disk management and if there is no letter assigned drive, I suggest you make a right click on the drive and assign a drive letter and check to see if it helps:

  Windows 7 upgrade Advisior gives me the ok to proceed with the transfer.  But, I think I need to upgrade the hard drive and a solid state, it will do the trick.

  So the information I need, what is disk hard solid state, I need to replace the Maxtor & 6Y080L0 (81.96 GB drive)

  Rev [edited moderator Serial Number] s/n YAR41VWO.

  Thank you very much for the help.

  Unfortunately, it won't work.

  Your desktop PC old venerable uses don't suport not the SATA interface and IDE hard disks. He certainly gave you several (10) years of great service.

  SSDS use the SATA interface.

  There is none of the hard drives SSD IDE on the market.

  This is why it was suggested at the forum that you referenced to turn off the old office in the pasture.

• Bay DVD replace HARD drive not recognized by Windows

  I have a 7737 with the 256 GB SSD, but I wanted more storage internally and was not too annoyed to have DVD - so I bought a caddy and replaced the optical drive with a WD Scorpio Black 750 GB drive.

  When I went into administration - computer management - disk management tools, he acknowledged that the drive was there because he told me that he needed reprogramming - so I went ahead and let him. The disc quickly disappeared from the list, and I can't do anything that he can come back.

  I tried to refresh, rescan the drives, restart (how can I confirm the BIOS recognizes the drive correctly, as the "SATA ODD', but Windows still refuses to acknowledge that he is here.) Device Manager displays only the SSD and scanning for hardware changes have no effect.

  Maybe it's a coincidence, but now my laptop seems a touch slow, especially in the graphics... and I noticed that in the Task Manager, System interrupts now takes 10 percent of time CPU on average. I can't say that I've never noticed that before. My old Samsung laptop (which has integrated graphics rather than a dedicated card, to be honest) claims system interrupts doesn't take any time at all CPU. This seems to suggest a conflict any exist, and maybe that's why the drive is not recognized?

  Because Device Manager is not see it, I can't check for updated drivers.

  Because disk management can't see, I can't format / partition / assign a drive letter.

  The BIOS does not let me do anything with the drive, go into properties or disable / re-enable, or something like that.

  Can anyone suggest what I might have missed in the configuration, or what I can do to fix this?

  Thanks in advance.

  Unfortunately, I can't find a downloadable diagnosis for your laptop. Try Seatools. Seagate website has a download, that you can use to create a CD bootable or flash player to test hard drives.

  I just want to see if a tool outside Windows can detect the drive and all the problems.

• Tecra M9-185 - 750 GB HARD drive not recognized

  I have Tecra M9-185 (PTM91E-0G4045G3) with BIOS Version 1.90 dated the 29.02.2008.
  It came with HARD drive of 160 GB, which is quite old and needs replacement. I want to upgrade the HARD drive. I tried to use the 750 GB HARD drive, but it was not recognized by the BIOS.

  Is it possible to upgrade the HARD disk? Is there a limit to the ability of the new HARD disk that can be installed?

  Hello

  Of course, the HARD drive can be upgraded.
  The laptop supports the SATA controller. The SATA controller is not limited to a special HARD drive size of my knowledge. 750Go should be supported too. But it might be possible that the BIOS is not able to manage these dimensions.
  Try a different SATA HDD with the smaller size.

  But question: why you n t choose an SSD (250 GB)?
  I have improved my Tecra A10 with a 250 GB SSD and the performance gain is amazing. The machine is running much faster and quieter

• Equium - HARD drive not recognized in Windows XP

  I replaced the HARD drive in the laptop, because the original had a catastrophic faulure. I replaced the HARD drive correctly (as far as I can see) but when I come to re - install Windows XP HARD drive may not be recognized.

  Any ideas?

  Hi potters.

  What model of laptop you have exactly?

  It would be important to know because if you have a model that uses SATA hard drives need drivers Intel Storage Manager you can install Windows XP.

  But in this case, you should check other forum threads. You will find hundreds of discussions on installing XP on SATA hard drive.

• Re: Satellite L500 - HARD drive not recognized in BIOS

  Hi guys,.

  Yesterday, my mother-in-law has been using his computer and play some games. The computer froze and I had to force a shutdown. Upon restart, the computer continued to give the following message is displayed:
  PXE - E61: Media control failure, control cable (or something similar)

  I removed the HARD drive and replaced him, with no avail. I checked the BIOS, and the disc HARD is still not save in there, so not sure the hell happened.

  Anyone has any ideas on this? I'm looking at a new HARD drive otherwise.

  See you soon,.

  Nathan.

  Hey,.

  If the HARD drive is not recognized in the BIOS more I think that it s faulty and you need a new. This is the reason why you get up a PXE boot message initially.

  Is your laptop still under warranty? Then you can get a new HDD to an authorized service provider for free.
  Otherwise, you can buy yourself but it s not expensive. You can use each interface SATA 2.5 HARD drive.

• Upgrade to msata but now original 320 GB HARD drive not recognized

  Hi all

  I just upgraded to an msata that works quite well. However, the HARD disk refuses to be recognized in the BIOS or in windows 7, I just get a 2100 on startup error. I can boot windows after pressing a few keys, but the hard drive is nowhere to be seen in windows. Is it possible to update the list of hard disk or do a low-level format?

  I sent the laptop back on Monday, received Lenovo on Tuesday and I got it back on Friday all fixed! The notes with the laptop says that the motherboard has been replaced, so the sata connection must have been faulty as I suspected.

  Very, very impressed with the service!

• Need help: HARD drive not recognized in XPS 8500

  Hello

  I have a special edition of XP Dell 8500 which worked perfectly until this morning, when the hard drive is no longer recognized.  When the computer is resumed mode standby, the computer froze and after rebooting the main hard drive is more visible to the system at all.  DSS and DVD discs are recognized, but the HARD drive is not.  It's all original parts factory with Windows 7, and nothing in the computer has changed between yesterday and today.

  I am looking for help on solving this problem.

  I tried to change the power supply and the motherboard to hard drive with well-known cables, changing the setting from BIOS of RAID and AHCI, but nothing works.

  Start with a DVD of Windows 7 does not detect the HARD drive at all. Run the diagnostics Dell system via F12 at startup can't find any errors - but also, he does not see the whole HARD disk.

  Thanks in advance for any helpful ideas.

  You have done all your possible - the drive is toast and needs to be replaced.

• Hard drives not recognized on Precision 650

  Hello

  I have a Dell Precision Workstation 650 2003 System. I have 4 hard drives of 250 GB on in more the 40 GB boot drive. Of data readers were on the secondary IDE channel, while the other two were on a PCI - IDE card.

  Recently, I decided to upgrade all drives in my system. For my boot drive, I have upgraded to a Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST380215A HDD 80 GB 7200 RPM IDE Ultra ATA100. For my data drives, I went with 4 ST3750640A of Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 750 GB 7200 RPM Ultra ATA100 IDE drives.

  After having replaced the drives, I was able to install CentOS Linux 5.1 on the 80 GB boot drive. I also could see the 750 GB drives attached to the PCI - IDE card. However, the 750 GB drives connected to the secondary IDE channel are not recognized by the BIOS or the operating system.

  I tried the following command to get the discs to work:

  (i) update of the BIOS on the workstation to version A05. It is the latest version of the BIOS available from Dell for my system.

  (II) new IDE cables are used for the secondary IDE channel.

  (III) tried all four disks to see if any combination works.

  (IV) tried to put just a walk on the secondary channel.

  (v) tried "cable select" setting the jumpers on the drives.

  (VI) configuration of the riders ' master/slave' I tried on disks.

  (VII) tried other riders to Seagate where you put an extra jumper on two pins closest feeding on both drives.

  (VIII) tried erasing memory NVRAM using keystrokes - Alt + F, Alt + E, and then Alt + B. After reboot, the system performed the automatic IDE configuration, but couldn't detect the 750 GB drives.

  (IX) tried the IDE cable that I use for the PCI card, which is able to detect the discs correctly.

  (x) tried to connect the drives on the primary IDE channel.

  None of these things have worked. I don't want to go back to the 250 GB drives because I want more storage. Y at - it a trick of hardware/software/firmware that I missed? Is there a way I can use the 750 GB drives on my system?

  Thank you

  Saurabh

• External Toshiba HARD drive not recognized on USB 2.0 ports, but only on USB 3.0

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba drive external HARD 750 GB USB2.0/USB3.0
  Now, this HARD drive is not recognized on USB 2.0 ports from my laptop (same thing on my desktop computer) but only on the USB 3.0 port.

  I have try on port USB2.0 computers different (desktop, laptop) but it doesn't work. The LED is the lightning, but the drive does not appear in the file Explorer.

  You have any ideas?

  Thank you

  > Now this HARD drive is not recognized on USB 2.0 ports from my laptop (same thing on my desktop computer) but only on the USB 3.0 port

  USB 3.0 port 900mA feeds. The USB 2.0 port common provides 500mA.
  I think that the HARD drive needs more 500mA power in order to work properly.

  So if you want to use the HARD drive on USB 2.0 ports, I recommend you to use a USB Y cable which allows to connect the HARD drive to two USB 2.0 ports

• Satellite M70: HARD drive not recognized external - various XP error messages

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite M70 and I have a Western Digital external hard drive.
  Initially, it worked great, I was able to put my large collection of music, etc. on it and run a computer off to save space on my integrated HD.

  But recently I had problems with XP not recognizing HD or be able to write in it. It appears in my computer, then disappear, often randomly when I write new files to it.
  I reformatted the hard drive to NTFS as it ran originally as FAT32.

  I updated my BIOS as well, but I'm out of ideas.

  Anyone else had similar problems with XP?

  Thank you

  Will be

  Have you thought about external HARD drive failure?
  Perhaps failure of HARD drive and, therefore, it cannot be recognized correctly.

• Tecra S3 on Linux: hard drive not recognized

  Hello

  I recently bought a laptop Toshiba Tecra S3 and I'm happy with it, except for one important thing: I can not install Linux on it.

  I tried with the latest versions of Fedora Core and Ubuntu, the hard drive seems to be detected, but it is not recognized at the time of installation. I guess it's a matter of (too) new chipset Serial ATA.

  You have any recommendations or do you intend to contribute to the kernel modules in Linux/order that this model could be installed on Linux?

  Also note that I remember that I had the same problem when I tried to install Windows XP from a CD (not the recovery cd): the hard drive has not been detected and the installation failed.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  I can t believe that you can not install a Windows operating system.
  You formatait once again the HARD drive? I recommend to format the HARD drive completely, then install the operating system.
  In addition, if you want to use the Windows operating system, you must use the recovery CD because this image included all the necessary drivers.

  If you want to work with the Linux operating system, I recommend using the Knoppix distribution. In this case you n t need to install anything. This Linux you can start from the DVD or CD and it works as a Linux operating system normally

  Good bye
