2nd SATA drive causes Win7 startup hang, but works in USB case?
I have Win7 installed on my primary IDE drive.
I have two additional data drives on SATA ports.
One SATA drive has now malfunctioned and causes the BIOS to hang.
The SATA drive will work if I remove it from the motherboard and put it into a USB case. In the USB case all folders and data are still there.
Does anyone know what may have caused the drive to not work on the motherboard anymore? Can the problem be fixed so I can put the drive back on the motherboard?
thanks.
