Failed instal of Win7 left HDD undetectable
OK, got a new HDD (WD Black..)
Anyway, went to install Win7 Home on it. Partitioned the drive (gave myself a 100 gig partition for OS) but didn't format the partition.
Hit Install... It ended up hangin for almost an hour at 1% and then 3% unpacking files... So I restarted thinking i had to format the partition first (seemed odd it took that long).
Now the drive won't boot on it's own (bootmgr doesn't exist error) and if I start up with my old HDD OR the Win7 disc it can't find the new HDD at all
Is there some way I can make it recognize that HDD?
I hate Windows now, it's official.
