    It might help the troubleshooters here if you gave more information:

    Two 500 GB Hitachis ain't enuf info...

    Is there a Master/Slave relationship?

    Starting up*

    I found some other advice on this forum HDD is Missing.

    Sorry I should have done that first...

    Just needed to partition the HDD (used Acronis Disk Director Server)

I had some one just call me up to "fix" their computer. They forgot the password, again. I would make them a password reset disk but they'll just lose it. I think I need to keep all the info for computers that I work on stored at my house in my NAS.
Hello folks, I recently clean installed windows and since then 'cut' option is absent from the right lick menu. Ctrl+X does not work either. Any idea how to bring it back? Thanks in advance.
