Acer Aspire X3400 does not recognize two HDD
There are many threads about HDD not being erecognized, but either I´ve missed something or the advices posted here are irrelevant.
Acer Aspire desktop running WIN 7 (64) does not recognize two out of my three external HDD. Trying to start the computer with either of these two HDD connected, the computer gets stuck at these messages:
Del: Enter setup, and F12 : Boot menus. However, pushing the respective buttons nothing happens and the computer does not boot. After disconnecting the HDD , shutting the computer down by the On button and then starting again, the PC boots normally.
The funny thing is that our Compaq 8200 Elite, also running WIN 7 (64) does recognize the problem HDDs without problem. It even starts with the problem HDDs connected to it. Therefore I assume there´s nothing wrong with the HDDs .
Any ideas?
