Hot Swap disk not being seen on h8-1360t uless attached when first booted - Windows 7 64bit OS

I have used one of the internal SATA connections to create an eSATA connection.  The disk I an using externally is seen correctly when turned on at boot time.  It is not seen if the disk is added after the machine has been already started.
I have ACHI enabled in the BIOS and the insalled driver is the, 'Intel 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controler' , version 12.6.0.1033.
What might I be missing to get the disk to be seen when connected after the machine has been runing for awhile?
This disk is seen corrected on another machine runing Windows 7 32bit - the only difference I can see between these machines is the wokring one is 32bit Windows 7 and the failing one is 64bit Windows 7.
Thanks

Hi,
Your PC according to the HP specifications is not full UEFI (perhaps partial) but I don't believe that is your issue. You need to be running a version 8 or 80 BIOS level to be full UEFI.
Did you reboot after installing the latest version of 12.9?
Do you know what SATA level the drive and housing supports?
You might nuc'ing the hard drive and reformat it. Save any data before doing so.  Open ou the RUN window (admin) and enter the following commands:
cmd
diskpart
list disk
select disk x ----> x is the target drive
clean
exit
Now go into Disk Management and format the hard drive MBR and assign a drive letter.
There is one last thing to check.  See the below image. All of the SATA ports by default should be AVAILABLE and not marked HIDDEN.  You need to boot into the BIOS (Computer Setup).
Additionally, go into the Control Panel --> Folder options and look at the following settings.
HP DV9700, t9300, Nvidia 8600, 4GB, Crucial C300 128GB SSD

  • Why can I not load pictures from a micro SD 64gb using scan disk adapter plugged into an Apple iPad camera connection kit.  I have the iPhoto app but pictures not being seen on iPad.  So incredibly frustrating.  Apple please fix this.

    Do you have a smaller capacity micro SD card to try? I seem to remember from past posts that users were having problems with cards larger than 32GB, however, Apple's page doesn't mention this.

  • I've used an external drive for time machine which has important files on it. After trying to back up my computer, it suddenly needed to be "repaired" by utilities. Now it's not being "seen" at all! How do I recover my important files off the drive?

  • LaCie d2 500GB Quadra Hard Drive Not Being Seen By Time Machine

    Hello all,
    I have a LaCie d2 500GB Quadra Hard Drive Not being seen by Time Machine hooked up to my iMac via firewire 800. My iMac is running latest updates etc. Have raised a support ticket and was given the following instructions by LaCie:
    Posted: 08 November 2007 @ 00:00
    Thank you for contacting LaCie Technical Support. Make sure the drive is mounting and you can assess files on it on your 10.5 system. If you can then you will need to reformat the drive to make it compatible with time machine.
    Warning! All data on the external drive will be destroyed in this process.
    Step 1: Run Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility
    Step 2: Click on the LaCie hard drive's 'physical' entry, usually the third entry in the list
    Step 3: Click on the Partition tab
    Step 4: Change 'Current Scheme' to '1 Partition'
    Step 5: Change the name of the drive back to what you would like it to be
    Step 6: The format needs to be Mac OS Extended, with or without journaling
    Step 7: Click on the Options... button
    Use "Apple Partition Map" partition scheme on a PowerPC-based Mac.
    Use "GUID" partition scheme on an Intel-based Mac.
    Step 8: Click on OK
    Step 9: Click on Apply
    Step 10: click on Erase at the bottom of the screen, then confirm the erase.
    The drive should start to be reformatted which should take only a few seconds and show up on the desktop with a new icon. Once it has you can then use it with time machine.
    I have done all of the above and it is still not being seen. Anyone had a similar issue or got the above to actually work?
    Thanks in advance!!!!

    Ryan,
    Check drive volume name and also the Computer name. Apple released a tech note recommending that both be limited to only the characters A-Za-z0-9 (no dashes, hyphens, or other special characters.
    If you can, send the Apple System Profiler report to me at the addres in my profile. Imay be able to see something there. I have helped another user with similar problems, but with a LaCie USB drive. He got things working by repeating the recommended steps, and double checking everything.
    As others have rported, this should work, so there may be something else preventing proper operation.
    If the drive is usable from Finder, but Time Machine cannot use it, there is something related in how Time Machine is viewing the drive.

    At present I have no power to the Gen 7, so need to get some power to it I think.  I pressed the buttons as you suggested, but nothing is showing up at this point.  Thank you for your response as the more I can rule out before  I take it back the better I think.

  • DVD 1270 not being seen in xp to install at start up windows 7

    DVD 1270 not being seen at startup in xp to install windows 7. Boot order works - the machine sees  a cd but not a dvd. Installed latest driver for lightscribe from this site. Also tried two other dvds - one a hp 1160 which works on  another machine it sees the dvd on other machine running w7 but not on this new one - ASUS mthrbd P867-M Le. ASUS says it is the DVD and to try another. Seems like it may be a config issue. Any ideas? Thanks

    Well, if the drive is good, then try a different SATA port.  It might be that the OS is looking for the drive per the BIOS and it is not on the SATA 0 port. BTW: Does this motherboard have 6GB SATA ports?  Do not use them for DVD drive.

  • My new macbook pro is giving me hardtime. even apple team is not being to solve it. they replace the motherboard first it didn't work. second time they formatted the computer and that also didn't work. every time my mac showing different problems.

    my new macbook pro is giving me hardtime. even apple team is not being to solve it. they replace the motherboard first it didn't work. second time they formatted the computer and that also didn't work. every time my mac showing different problems.
    At first my computer had issues. Once it go to sleep it will not back again. I dropped my laptop at apple store to fix it. After 10  days they returned my laptop saying they were no able to fix the problem so they replaced motherboard aiming if that might help. Acttually that didn't help.I had same issue again. I visited apple store again. This time they said they could fix, if I will allow them to format the harddrive. I said ok. They formatted it. It was working fine for few daysAfter few days compter is taking.even more than 15 min to shutdown. Now computer has another problem. It is being hang frequently like every 20'to.30 min.
    I don't know what to do? I still have one month left on first year warranty. I have requested couple times to apple associates either to fix or replace or refund. They are showing me rude behavior. They are not understanding my situation. I am a student. I need to do lot of home work. Since last three month my mac book and apple associates giving me hard time. Any suggestions are welcome.

    Contact Apple Customer Care - not Apple Care - Customer Support. Have your receipts handy and/or case numbers. Be patient, be calm, and tell your story just as you have here. I get the sense you are not in the US and don't have access to an Apple Store but are going to an independent shop. This makes using Customer Support all the more important. If phoning isn't viable, use registered mail.
    Since time is running short, be prepared to purchase AppleCare to exennd your warranty 2 more years. Yes, you shouldn't have to do this, but it gives you added protection and more opportunities over the next 2 years to claim a replacement computer if you don't get one immediately. After dealing with a similar unhappy situation with a Mac in the late 1990s I finally got a replacement computer and reimbursed for the AppleCare policy.

  • My speakers are not working but it still makes a sound when it boots up

    my speakers are not working but it still makes a sound when it boots up.

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
    1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article.
    2. If your model has an audio-out (headphone) port, and a red light is coming from it, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
    If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
    3. Boot in safe mode. Don't log in; just reboot as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
    4. Reset the NVRAM.
    5. Reset the SMC.
    6. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
    7. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

  • Ei.cfg not being seen by windows installer on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit retail disk.

    My problem is that the retail disk of Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit has no ei.cfg restrictions. Instead of choosing the correct operating system ID, on install, the .cfg
    is coming from some where else installing a custom version of windows that is a different version of windows than on the retail install disk that I have a software key to. Even though it recognizes the key as windows 7 the operating system no longer recognizes
    the retail disk it was installed from as the same version of operating system. It seems that there is a pre operating system install to a volume that cant see the ei.cfg file on the windows retail disk. It is something like Windows ME or MCE and it is hard
    to get past because it acts  like the operating system after install. It looks like there is a complete install of windows 7 but it is only a version of ME or MCE in the 100MB range installed to a partition volume. I am given a User account Profile within
    Application Data folder  in the system. The actual windows system in its entirety does not exist in the partial virtual operating systems. All the installs are to Partition Volumes on the Partition of a GPT Server Partition on a Disk
    on the Hard drive. All Virtual.
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit and 32bit retail disk is GSP1RMCHPXFRER_EN_DVD. The bios version on my Asus G75VX is American Megatrends version 206, V Bios version 80.04.97.00.13.N62G75500, EC version B14E140001. The operating system version is not the same
    as the install disk. The boot configuration is; American Megatrends Bios Aptio Setup Utility installed. :\\?|GLOBALROOT\Device|HarddiskVolume1\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\BCD.Backup.0001 Software build after install is Buildlab 7601.Win7Sp1_rtm.101119-1850 Client install

    .reg file in text format http://1drv.ms/1m9RXL7.
    The above information was taken after an install from the Microsoft Windows 7 64 bit retail disk purchased at Fry's and installed to my Asus G75VX. It is a Network Managed Client Server configuration that installs from the retail disk.

    I have been dealing with this problem since the day I purchased the first notebook from Best Buy configured this way and it was not even an Asus. It was a Samsung Chronos i7. The Asus G75VX I have now is the third notebook in a row purchased from Best Buy
    with the configuration right out of the un open retail box. None out of the three came with windows 7 installed. They had windows 8 64bit installed with the configuration. I purchased Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit attempting to get around the configuration
    problem.
    My main concern is that I use computers to do my legal documents in court cases in the United States Federal Courts and I am a pro se litigator and I have been litigating a civil action since 2011 that is still open in the federal court. I am also legally
    disable and covered by Federal Communications Act FCC Rule 255. This configuration has Telephone software and equipment, Management Software and equipment, and Networking software and equipment all covered within FCC Rule 255. My notebook is unusable for litigation
    or personal use as a Publicly Managed Network Client Server. I paid $1350.00 of my Social Security Disability income for the Asus G75VX and another $216.00 for Windows 7 Home Premium 32 and 64 bit DVD and that is not counting a list of other things to
    now have a personal notebook computer I have to sat down beside me in public libraries, Colleges etc. to use their computers to do my legal work. It is illegal and total wrong and it is a violation of the Bill of Rights First and Fourth Amendments and Title
    VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the American with Disability Act outside of 255.
