hick Posted December 14, 2003 Posted December 14, 2003 (edited) ok i got a new HDD its a 120gb SATA segate, when i try to install windows on it windows does not detect it. I tried a few things: 1. partitioned to how i want it 2. made it one big partition 3. deleted the partions to see if windows wanted to do it all. nothing worked . I know the HDD is detected and working b/c i can use it now but i want to put my OS on it and take out my current ide drive. oh and i also tried to take out the current HDD and install windows but it still cant find it on the install this one is about to go out b/c i hear it clicking and it smokes sometimes :x edit - windows XP pro edit - well i just used migrateEasy Deluxe and copied the drive , the only problem is that it had to undo my partitions Edited December 14, 2003 by nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
