| | SATA Hard Drive Not Detected I am trying to install windows 7 for a friend but the hard drive isn't detected within windows setup or within the bios. I have tried installing SATA drivers to try and get windows to recognise the hard drive but to no avail. Is there anything else I can try before assuming that the hard drive may be faulty? |

| | Change out the cables, and change ports as suggested. Unless you can get it to register in BIOS, the installer won't see it. You shouldn't have to provide any SATA drivers for Windows 7 installer, only iDE drivers if applicable. |
