    "hard drive not detected" but the hard drive shows in bios


    Ok, so I got a new asus P8z68-V pro motherboard.
    Im re-using my current 750gb SATA drive.
    I plugged it into the sata port, and start the computer.

    When it starts it says "no hard drive is detected!"

    I go into the bios, and on the bottom it has a disk drive, and a SATA drive.
    It recognizes that the sata drive is there, but when i go to start up it says no hard drive is detected.

    I have tried a few different sata ports and it is the exact same thing.
    Any idea how to fix it, i am getting very frustrated at this point
    thanks a lot

    is it your windows drive, or an extra storage drive?
