How about uninstalling the CD-rom drive, then re-installing it? (like uninstalling the drivers, and reinstalling the most up to date ones.)

To make a link such as THIS in an email, you would want to use the following HTML code (but remember to replace the site location to the url of the one you want, and the "Click Here" with the text you want the link to say.

Did you use f6 during install to load sata drivers?
Hey Sethook,
Yes he did try that already. That's mentioned in his original post.

EXCELLENT! Thanks! I've been looking for a way to use Firefox on my pc at the college since they won't allow me to install anything.

to check that the HD is spinning, you'll just have to listen very closely to see if you hear it spinning up.
By "wiping" the hard drive, I mean using a program such as Active Killdisk to completely wipe off any information from the hard drive. I know it sounds dumb, but trust me, it's worth a shot. It's how I fixed a similar issue with my IDE HD, and how someone was able to fix another issue with their SATA drive.
Let me know if that works for you.

hey, Tyme! I'm hanging in there. It's been a rough semester so far. I'm really looking forward to the end.
Care to share what that third party program was in case someone else has a question similar?
-
adblock extension works for me!
-
ok, since I"m not too sure what youve already done, please bear with me.
What drivers did you load? Where they the most up to date?
The hard drive may just need to be wiped. (even if it is brand new)
Did the seagate come with a floppy or disk for wiping the hard drive or anything? if so, Use that to completely wipe the drive, then try installing windows again.
Make sure that the drive is spinning up.

Need more information Dragon Slayer...
What SATA Hard Drive?
What Motherboard?
what SATA Controllers?

*tsk tsk* Tyme, what have we told you about playing with the registry? It's not a toy. LOL
Before ever making any changes in the registry, please remember to make a backup of it in case you have any problems.

Use Everest. It will show you your product key, plus many other things, about your computer.
Dang TG! You're right! I keep forgetting about that too!

yes, go in to
Start --> Control Panel --> User Accounts --> Change An Account
Select the User account you want to change the name for and do so.

Don't know for sure, but if you just call microsoft and let them know that you had to reformat, and reinstall, you should either be able to continue to use that key, or they'll give you a new one to use.
-
hey, give us links once you do have them up, I might be interested in purchasing something.
-
Heh....if anyone wants to download that flying mower video, you can do so, HERE.
I did a quick search for it so I can show friends who are unlucky enough to have dial-up, or no net at all.

No matter how much protection you use, there's ALWAYS a chance for infection.
-
You should be able to just reformat after you get the drive connected inside.

I've been trying to find a review for that Rosewill drive and I can't seem to find one. That doesn't mean that it isn't a good drive, but it does seem like more of a gamble.
I agree. I couldn't really find much information on those drives, and I've never heard of them before.

Congrats! There's gonna be a little tictoc running among us before we know it!
