Hi there,
Christmas eve and having massive issues, still awake at 2am..this is seriously a major brain itch that I can't shake and have been stuck on for 4 hours straight
I got a new WD blue 1TB hd that I'm trying to just get regognized and its not happening.
I currently have windows 7 installed on my main HDD, and have been having trouble even just trying to get this new 1TB HD recognized.
I swear I've followed so many instructions from around the web and none have been working, I just know its something stupid, not a faulty drive...i have a gut feeling its my motherboards fault and has to do with some sata controller issues or something
I've used different sata cables
I've tried gigabtye sata controller drivers
i've tried various sata port combinations
I've changed sata in BIOS from AHCI (or whatever it is) to IDE and such
I've used "computer management" via right clicking on "my computer" to see if the drive will show up to be able to partition it and get it ready for installing windows 7 on it
NONE of the above have worked
