I removed a hdd and then placed it back no windows 7 is not loading.
Quick description. i Removed the HDD froma computer, plugged it into a different pc then back. windows failed to load. now, HDD is unplugged and windows 7 starts up ok.
More Info,
-i placed a 3tb seagate drive into an enclosure and plugged the enclosure into a windows xp x86 system. the hdd was not valid.
- I loaded up my win7 pc without the drive attached.
- I plugged the enclosure into my win7 pc. It worked.
- I put the HDD back into the Win7 pc internally.
- Windows did not start up. It got stuck on the pulsating windows logo. I waited 15 minutes and the turned the machine off.
- I loaded up the winxp sp3 dual boot on my win7 machine. i did not install any new hardware,
- Restart of the computer. I selected win7 and a pre windows message said that winodws could not load. 2 options were given. 1/ attempt to fix and 2/ load windows normally.
- I selected to attempt a fix, it could not fix the issue.
- I then attempted to load as normal... it failed. i again turned the machine off.
- i removed the HDD from my win7 machine. it seemed that i had unplugged my reset swith io jumper. when i initially removed the hdd.
- I switched on the pc and it started up as normal.
