im trying to install this second hard drive but windows will not install the drivers for it
the bios recognizes it correctly and i can format it and clone to it but it does not run right and is very slow and this is the second hdd that has given me the same problem the other hdd was a maxtor but it has been rma already
below is the specs and any help or two cents would be appreciated.
ive put it on the other channel,swithed ribbons out, tried slave and master, i have the jumper set correctly, flashed the latest bios, installed the latest 4 in 1 drivers, and i get the same pop up when i boot that says cannot install hardware.
and of course i have the ! in device manager under the western digital hdd which by the way is recognized correctly.
