Hmm I went into bios a few times each time it saw all the HDs. The boot order I initially had it boot from the CD. Then after failing to install from the DVD I changed it to boot from HDs first and the boot order was XP HD then Vista HD. After installing vista, I kept the boot order the same but...
No. Dont have a sata disk.. I thought XP sp2 and on didnt need sata drivers?
It seems Vista doesnt like installing by itself. If I start the vista install from XP and do a install there (not the upgrade) it'll do it fine. Except I have to continue to boot from my XP Hard drive if I try to...
So I was running vista on an older Maxtor... until the boot whatever crapped out on me. So I bought a new seagate 320gb sata 2 drive. I just got it plugged it all in removed the jumper (i think I read that you have to remove the jumper for it to function as sata2) so Im trying to install a clean...
Weird tried, turned on my comp again today and it tried to boot from the Maxtor and gave me something like "Invalid Boot Partition" or something... since I left the boot priority alone. And now when I get back into XP I have access to the Maxtor drive. I think I'm just going to transfer stuff...
So I have two HDs. A 160 GB Hitachi and 200 GB Maxtor. I hadn't really used the Maxtor much until recently because it use to be in my ps2, and then I took it out so it sat around. Until Vista came out and I decided I wanted to give it a whirl so I installed Vista on the Maxtor and I have XP on...
So I just discovered today that my dvd-rom no longer detects disks when I put them in. It was working fine a couple of days ago as I was able to put a dvd into the drive and use that to rip things. Now I have to put the dvd into my burner for it to detect. Any idea what could have caused this...
hmm where do I go to change the port settings in windows firewall? I'm trying to use ABC and I Just disabled firewall but it doesnt seem to be working properly yet.... the torrents are in gold instead of green
whoops might have just figured it out... i forgot I changed the ports in my...
yea I got an email that it was oos too. I asked if I could exhange it with another type and the rep offered these www.shop4tech.com/user.htm?go=view_item&id=2535&cata=1&s_cata=286. Dunno how good or bad they are... but I'm running low on DVDs so whatevers.
hmm I think RAID is turned off. I'll double check and turn it off. I accidently left the power off the HD and booted and it booted up quickly with just a dvdrw plugged in. I had them on seperate IDE cables but I just recently put them on the same cable and I set the jumpers. (Master for hdd and...
So Im building a comp for my dad using some parts from my current comp (cpu + ram). The cpu is a 3000+ and the ram is ocz gold essentially both things ran beautifully on my old setup with a dfi motherboard. So it seems there might be a problem with the IDE. When I first plugged in the HD it...
Ordered mine a few days ago. Just got it today. Seems pretty nice. Didnt notice any dead pixels. I got it for my dads new pc so for 110 its great. Kinda annoying to plug stuff in kinda have to bend stuff into it but oh well.
