ok sooo umm my power supply went. soo i went and got another one. but now after ive hooked up everything and tried to boot up. my HD cannot be found.
everytime i boot up i get the message
Reboot and Select proper Boot device
or Insert Boot Media in Selected Boot device.
and when i bring up my bios
it asks to choose a boot device but it only gives me the option of a Removable Drive and a DVD Drive.
either my slave drive or anything is being recognized i plugged another HDD that i have layibg around and that same message comes up
EDIT : but what if its my motherboard. or something else. i can replace the cables i have a number of them lying around unopened. the HDD powers up i can hear it but it just wont connect to the motherboard or the mother board just wont recognize it. the HDD is less then 2 months old.
my computer just shut down as i was using it and i could never get it back on. and nothing was getting anypower sooo i went and got a power supply. and only 1 of my disc drives is bring recognized soo im unsure of what it could be. but ill try to swap the dvd with the HDD
ok im back home, i just swapped out the connection from my dvd to my HDD and it loaded up no problems. ill be replacing the connector and hopefully that is alll.
