I think the partition is in the SSD? I deleted all partitions before formatting. View: https://imgur.com/a/l5PZbmQ

Yes sir!

Ok so I figured it out now. Did a clean format of everything, then the HDD didn't show up again since I deleted the partition. Then I just used this tutorial in youtube View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjotE0sFegQ It's recognized now and I have a fresh copy of windows on the SSD. HDD is...

Hmm...any way I can make it show up without having to install windows on that HDD? Like make it act like one huge USB instead?

LOL. Exactly what happened. So I took off the SSD, installed windows on the HDD for the first time, and reconnected the SSD. Now they both show up. It's my first time using two drives. Thank you for the suggestions!

The HDD is recognized, just not showing up in "My computer"

I honestly have not tested them. Had the board for a while now, so just bought parts for it. I don't have my old pc now since I moved, so I have no way of testing the other components separately. I wouldn't be surprised if the board was working before, and died while in storage. Thanks for the...

Hello. I have an old Asus maximus hero VII that I decided to make use of. It was given as a gift but was never opened since it was given to me. Finally had the time to make use of it after all these years. Unfortunately, this happens when trying to start. Doesn't boot, no POST sound or anything...

Thank you for the reply!

Hi there. Ok, so used to be, I always reformatted a USB on a Mac (not quick format, I used the option that has 3 passes) before I insert it to my windows laptop/pc. I did this to lessen the chances of getting a virus from other windows computers since I occasionally needed to use the USB on...
