My computer is not detecting my hard drive. can i fix this problem without buying a new hard drive?
I have formatted the hard drive and put in all three recovery discs and it still won't load windows xp home edition.. i thought that was what the recovery discs were for.. maybe the hard drive is bad i don't know but if someone is having the same problem i could sure use some help here..
I bought another driver still not reading the hard drive what do i do next to fix it
Hello
if it is not detected in BIOS, you will need to replace harddrive in your system it is pretty easy and then you can upgrade your harddrive too, also after your replace your harddrive you might have recovery discs came with your system just put these discs in your system and reimage your harddrive.
Thankyou
You will have to check whether you motherboard detects the harddrive first by logging on to the bios setup at the boot sector if it is showing the harddrive there then you might want to try downloading the latest bios update and installing it if all that does not work but the hard drive is showing on your bios setup them try re-installing the operating system here you must format the harddrive fully. If all these do not work then Im afraid you need to replace the harddrive.
