Generic problem for all Storage Controllers
My new HDD isnt showing up in my computor (by 2 users)
posted by scottnewp on Jan 21, 2008
I bought a new HDD today, I have installed it correctly. The BIOS can't find it in the standard CMOS setup but in the advanced setup it is the 3rd boot device and in features setup onboard SATA-IDE controller is enabled.
Can you help me please?

external hard drive was working. Unplugged it to put it on another pc and it did not show up. put it back on the first pc and it now does not show up there either. have unplugged, rebooted, etc. it simply does not show up as connected. Full of all my I-tunes music--do not want to lose it. Is there a driver? Can I somehow transfer all that to another hard drive. HELP

WizWhat type of HDD is your new one? SATA, IDE?
Do you have any USB disk devices plugged in to your system? USB hard drive or flash stick or other SD cards? Remove them and try rebooting again. These can sometimes take precedence over your HDD and your system will not boot.
