Hi everyone,
I desperately need some help. My brother's computer was having all sort of issues, barely unusable. It is MSI p67a-c43 with 2500k and a radeon 6870. I decided to reinstall his computer in a new case, reapply paste to CPU, and also did a fresh install of windows 10 on a new SSD. Temps went from 87C to <40C, computer is snappy, everything is great. Here is the only issues. I decided to switch BIOS from IDE to AHCI before doing a fresh install from USB to a new SSD. Both drives were under IDE before. Now I have both drives connected and I can't see them at all in BIOS, or in any software programs (Acronis etc). I tried inputting into different SATA ports on the motherboard and no dice. One is 250GB WD Black, other is Seagate 1TB.
I unplugged the drive before switching. There is something going on with my Windows not recognizing the drives because there were done under IDE? Important data is on them so can't wipe them.
