Another hard Drive issue.
Hello.
Some of the forum topics did not covered my problem so i though of starting a new one.
I recently bought a Western Digital Caviar Green 750GB SATA2 internal HDD.
I connected it properly, but it is not detected by any of my IDE controlers. (IDE controllers all set to AUTO, and nearly everything is enabled in BIOS to detect the HDD).
I tryied various combinations to check if it is HDD or OS error.
I concluded that it either has some missing drivers, or the HDD is dead.
I can hear the drive spinning, but I get no response. It wont detect it anywhere. Nor in Computer Management, nor in BIOS.
In the WD site, i couldnt find the drivers. Only a program that makes diagnostics, and even there, it wont find my new Disk.
In two days i will go back to the shop I bought it and ask them, but before that, I would like to consult you first. Maybe if someone had similar issue and solved it could help me.
