Drive not recognized in bois
LockedThis weekend I removed my 40G maxtor hard drive to try and formate some other drives I bought at the computer show, now I am trying to install my existing 40 gig drive an the bios is not recognozing it I’ve been through the various checks cabel,power,bios setup etc. and nothing so far.
Another of my concern, the system would recognize my cdr/w drive as a slave without the 40g maxtor connected when I set the jumper to master on the har ddrive and reboot it will no longer recognize the cdr/w, it just disappears from the BIOS,I’ve been switching cabels,jumpers power connections and my system will only recognize my cdr/w as a primary slave and my #2 hard drive as the secondary master, also my OS is windows xp professional.I need some help! all my clients drawings are on the drive and I need to retrive my classwork assingments.
