HDD invisible ... IDE or RAID ?
Hey guys !
I'm having quite a large issue.
I recently bought a MEDION. Bad idea although I'm stuck with it now.
It came in with W8 preinstalled. I called a magician tech to help me at first becuase my UEFI BIOS was some sort of rare freak that I couldnt handle. In the end he performed a very successful uninstallation of W8 and install of W7 Ultimate x64 on the 32Gb SSD,
BUT (Along with some driver issues) I notice that my main 1Tb Samsung HDD isn't recognized at all by the machine. He installed me this W7 but couldnt do it on the 1Tb so he did it on the 32Go SSD. Yet when I was installing the latest driver I ran out of space on the drive ... and couldnt find the 1Tb HDD. I called my friend again he told me to reset the properties to RAID instaed of IDE again via the BIOS.
So ... technically I did ! From IDE to RAID ... But when I saved and restarted all it brought me are restoring options ... restart again : same ... So in order to boot on W7 I had to reset it to IDE ...
Now ... HOW the hell am I gonna get my 1tb hdd back ?
I'm in need.
