My computer will format, but then not "see" my new hard drive? - sata hard drive diagnostics
My old hard drive died, so I bought a new (Dell sales would be perfectly compatible cursed.) I am a unit of Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 SATA, and a disk of 500 GB Maxtor Basics reduce SATA SATA bridge 150 instead of 300th had
I ran hard drive diagnostics on the news and said it was okay.
Installation of XP (as a standard at all?) And formatting the hard drive.
Then when I try to start Windows and it gives an error message that it can not find the hard drive is successfully installed under Windows.
We have tried every position of the bridge and restore the BIOS. ran the disk check. It is a Dell XPS Gen 4, which has a motherboard with a chipset from Dell with an Intel possession 925th What can we do?

Sata Hard Drive Diagnostics My Computer Will Format, But Then Not "see" My New Hard Drive?

Well, I'll make a long recording here think and can not be right, but it must still be investigated. First, the installation CD that you received from Dell SATA drivers to install, probably for the original hard drive - it is possible that the SATA driver for Dell is good enough to see the new disk, but in any case, the drivers do not work properly with the Windows operating system installed. As a driver may be sufficient to recognize the SATA and format and then acknowledge that the start can be a bit escoteric for me, because I is not a driver developer, or writer, so I did not say - but it sounds like a SATA Drivers problem for me.
Dell, I would call you back, I tell them exactly what they said here, and asked if they have a kind of "ownership" of the SATA controller configuration that allows Windows to recognize the kind of hard to know how to . What I mean by that?
It may be that has the driver who can not read the disk was found that the computer can operate partially, but not completely a non-Dell StAndard hard (regardless of what he said!). Ask them if they have a driver to be downloaded by the generic term can work for all SATA drive. You need to go re-load Windows, run through the loading screen drivers with F6 when installing XP is to load certain drivers. The pilot must be on a disk, because that is what is going on XP look, but I had also worked the drivers on a CD and just swap the Windows Installer CD for the driver CD that also. You need the Windows installation CD into the CD drive after loading the SATA drivers from the CD to another continue to install Windows.
