Context: 2.5″ 80GB laptop SATA, not work in DELL dsktop, tried a couple of Ext Enclosure and Internal Adapter on desktop PC … NO GO…

Computer steps through “found new drive…”, but NO SHOW in My Computer.
Drive shows up in Device manager, but no Volume info
Press ‘Populate’ button but produce
[TYPE=Dynamic], [Status=Foreign], [Capacity, space…=0]
Drive shows up in Disk Mgr but no volume info.
Tried other machines, same result, no go…
Tried jumpers on all drives, still no go.

Data on drive, therefore, I cannot format drive.

Tried Extr Enclosure connected to laptop, it shows up correctly …

THE NET: works w/ laptop, not with desktop PC
