Did you remove all power and sata connections restart your computer repeatedly tapping the f8 key to enter safe mode while the screen is black once in safe mode where the only things working will be your keyboard and mouse allowing you to attempt to repair your computer

you could select the option start at last known configuration that worked this will tell you if and what file has been corrupted or missing then you will know if its a hardware issue and
work your way through the problem
if the problem still persists f8 back into safe mode you might need to select your operating system to load into safe mode

click start control panel administration tools computer management in the left panel events + to expand then system you will see all errors in right panel right click select properties this will tell you what has occurred and the time it occurred

you might use the system restore to restore your system to an earlier time click start all programs accessories system tools you should see your system restore option if it is a hardware issue the system restore might not work


hope this helps you

SOURCE: Fitting New SATA Harddrive

Did you check to make sure the sata interface in the bios is on. Not the RAID, just the sata. In the bios settings you'll find it under "Intergrated Peripherals/IDE Device Configuration". Make sure you enable both SATA1/SATA2 and SATA3/SATA4 if your not sure what plug you have your drive plugged into. Good luck.

SOURCE: BIOS intermittently loses CDROM

Hi, first check that your RAM chips are seated firmly, then check the CPU fan for dust, then if you still have the problem try disconnecting the on/off switch wires that run from the case to the board, bridge the two pin out to mstart the computer and see if problem still exists. The final test I can offer is the power supply, If you can use a multimeter and test the voltage. Yellow =12v red=5v black=ground. If you get a variance of more than 2v replace the unit. Another way is to try a diferent power supply. Regards mistyman

SOURCE: SATA drive not detected in BIOS and windows does not boot up

0501 is the newest beta bios for that motherboard. 0211 is the newest non-beta bios, both from 2006 timeframe with the beta bios being Dec 15, 2006.
Do you have the motherboard manual? That should explain almost all your questions. If not the website address for download of manual is http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us&model=K8V-MX
In some cases there will be jumpers on the motherboard to help with RAID issues, in other cases and with most of the more modern motherboards these issues are pretty much covered in the motherboard bios.

SOURCE: installing windows xp on my SATA h.d. and setup program cant find

Lookup your Motherboards Brand and Model. Google to find the Brands website, as most brands have a download section. Look for a file in downloads for YOUR MODEL motherboard with a name along the lines of SATA RAID DRIVER, download it and follow the manufacturers instructions for using it. Most will want you to copy all the files inside the SATA RAID DRIVER zip file onto a floppy and when windows xp setup is loading at the bottom one of the first things it says is "Press F6 and insert the SATA RAID Driver floppy diskette you just made. Then you are allowed to select the required driver for your motherboards SATA chip. Allowing windows to know what settings to use to communicate and see your drive. Hope this helps.

Windows xp not installing

If your hard drive is a SATA drive then -
SATA HARD DRIVE - XP INSTALLATION
The problem is that XPinstallation CD does not have a SATA driver, unless you have a SATA drive on adisk etc. and can install the driver when XP asks for a hard drive driver then,XP cannot detect the hard disk and therefore won't install XP.The FIX.Go into the BIOS anddisable the SATA drive (enable IDE emulation), this will make XP think it is aIDE/PATA hard disk. Then you can install XP normally. When Windows hasbeen installed then install all the device drivers (including the SATA driver),then shut down and boot up and got into the BIOS and enable the SATA drive.http://www.fixya.com/support/r4335035-installing_windows_xp_sata_hard_drive

How to change sata mode to install windows xp in dell n5010

Change SATA mode? This = No.


Change the Boot Order so that CDROM is the first boot device.

Use the one-time method.
As soon as the Dell logo appears start tapping on the F12 key.

When the boot device list appears use the appropriate Arrow key, (Up, Down, or Side), and highlight the device you wish.
Then press the Enter key.

(Choose CDROM)

My hdd does not get detected

I too had a similar problem with my laptop. My laptop had a virus attack and somehow I managed to remove all the viruses. However there was one persistent problem which was while booting, My documents used to open automatically. Hence I wanted to repair the Windows XP SP2 and so I went to BIOS and changed the settings to boot from CDROM. While booting the installation CD from CDROM, suddenly I get a message: Hard disk not found! This was nightmare. Then I got this solution:
My laptop was new and the HDD was connected to motherboard with SATA, and we need SATA drivers before installing OS. In the likely event of not getting this driver, we could still solve this problem by confusing the computer. Go to BIOS settings and change the SATA to IDE or any other. Then restart the computer. The HDD now can be seen and you can repair or reinstall the Windows XP SP2.

Switching from vista to xp for the acer aspire 5315-2153

You need to download and burn the files on a CD or put on a Pin drive.

After installing windows XP, you will need to install all the XP drivers for that model.

Go to the manufacturers website, download all the chipset, bios,audio,network drivers, and video drivers they have for XP and Install them after installing windows XP.

Installing XP requires you to boot from the install CD, partition the Hard drive in the windows install. Then install, It will reboot after it finishes and restart, go into more installing and when its done, you should be able to go into windows wher you are going to start installing all those drivers.

Start with the Mother board chipsets and then the video , the audio and network.

After you get all those, run windows updates to get everything up to date. Then you can start installing other software like MS office and whatever else.

Windows XP SP2 will not boot after installing new SATA hard drive

Your system thinks the "second" drive has precedence over the first ( your boot drive ) try switching the SATA cables between the two drives. There also might be a BIOS setting under Boot Order, sometimes you have to drill down to get to it for a particular drive.

Windows xp keeps failing

check the bios and see what the boot order is for the boot devices. Hard disk 0 should be listed after the cdrom drive. this problem you are having might occur if the hard drive is down the list in the boot order, and not checked as being a valid boot device.

Problems with windows.

  1. Are you using a SATA drive or an IDE(PATA)?
  2. If using SATA, is SATA set up in bios as first boot or second after CDROM?
  3. If using PATA hard drive is the IDE channel working properly? Switch the CDROM and Hard drive ribbon cables on the motherboard.

I can't use HDD sata on mainboard ASUS P5RD1-VM

Things need to be turned on in your bios patrohi. This is why windows didn't boot to the SATA. You need to use your manual & make sure the, Serial ATA Controller is [Enabled]
Within the Advanved menue under SouthBridge Configuration.
At the Main menue the SATA drive should be listed.
Boot settings need to change as well. At Boot Settings Configurations. Make sure your SATA drive is listed.
Boot order should list like, Floppy 1st, CDROM 2nd, SATA 3rd. The SATA will not list as a SATA but the model number of the SATA drive. Once all these settings are set save & exit. Your drive should show up for work & the windows CD should load.

Hp dv6000

There is option in BIOS called something about automated SATA recognition or similar - disable it. It is under System configuration. And if you are putting new drive in then run full test from BIOS (Hard drive selftest - takes about 79min.)
I tried to reinstall Windows Media center on my HP dv6000 because my previous hdd crashed - When I put in installation cd - it said that it can't find hdd. I spent week to figuring that out. The thing is - as far as you haven't disabled that SATA thing in BIOS - PC doesn't recognize hdd. But only with Windows media center edition. With all other windows xp - there is no such problems. Strange.
