    SATA drive went bad - can it be slaved?

    I was able to boot with the Knoppix (great product!) cd and see my drives. Luckily I was able to retrieve most of the data I needed. Thanks so much for your help, I really appreciate it!

    SATA drive went bad - can it be slaved?

    Cables are checked and rechecked and SATA-0 is still enabled. If I go back into setup and disable SATA-2 again the first disk goes back to working fine. I did however make a mistake in my first posting. There were two hard disks in my orginal computer, but they were set up to mirror with RAID...

    SATA drive went bad - can it be slaved?

    There are only two SATA controller on the motherboard, the one that the original disk is plugged into, which is blue and marked SATA 0, and the one that I plugged mine into which is marked SATA 2 and is black. I see no others. When I first plugged my drive into the SATA I did not change...

    SATA drive went bad - can it be slaved?

    I wasn't sure if is should because the 'master' drive in the second computer is also SATA. Before I put the disk I wanted to slave in the boot order read like this: 1.Onboard or USB Floppy drive 2.Onboard SATA Hard Drive 3.Onboard IDE Hard Drive (not present) 4.Onboard or USB CD-ROM Drive...

    SATA drive went bad - can it be slaved?

    I have a Dell Dimension E510 with a 160 Gbyte Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 SATA drive which apparently went bad. Was up and running and on this site when suddenly got a blue screen saying a problem had been detected and windows has shut down. This is what came up on the blue screen...

    inaccessible hard drive

    I have a western digital4000-BB that has Windows 2000 on it. Upon trying to start up this morning the Windows 2000 screen shows briefly and than kicks to a blue screen that states that there is an inaccessible hard drive. I have restarted a few times, and the same screen come up. Made sure...

    is my hard drive dead?

    I have a hard drive that stopped working. When I turn on the computer the BIOS no longer recognizes it and shows no hard drive. I have tried the basics, checking power and cables, etc. I took the hard drive and tried to slave it on another system, however that system won't recognize it either...

    Windows ME will not continue past the Windows logo screen

    Thank you so much for the info. I put in a new drive and upgraded some other things while I was at it. I was able to access her files by slaving the drive and save what she needed (thank goodness!). She would like to get her contact list off of outlook and a few old e-mails if possible. I got...

    Windows ME will not continue past the Windows logo screen

    Again thanks. Yes, the computer I will slave it to is will most likely be a XP operating system. Forgive my ignorance on the subject but when slaving the hard drive, how is it accessed in the computer with the XP OS? Are you given an option of which drive to load the OS from when you first start...

    Windows ME will not continue past the Windows logo screen

    Hi, thanks for answering so quickly. I was able to read the message and it said "Dell's Disk Monitoring System has detected that drive 0 on the primary EIDE controller is operating outside of Normal Specifications, it is advisable to immediately back up your data and replace your hard disk drive...

    Windows ME will not continue past the Windows logo screen

    I may have multiple problems here, and am not sure which is the culprit. To make matters worse it is my bosses computer! Her computer was having issues with Nortan AntiVirus Definitions not downloading. I was directed by the Norton site to uninstall the LiveUpdate files, and then reinstall them...
