New to SATA, quick install help please

I just got a 80GB Western Digital SATA drive that I would like to make my primary drive for windows 2000. I bought it OEM so i didn't recieve any software or setup guides. I unhooked the 2 other IDE hard drives during windows installation. I got the F6 to set up a third party drivers and installed both the storage controller and raid setup driver. This is as far as I can make it though. When I get to where you set-up windows it says no HDs detected. I looked through the BIOS and did not find any setting for SATA drives so I think everything is ok there. Any help would be greatly appreciated seeing how I am a noob to SATA.
Thanks,
Jeremy

Thank you for your quick reply 
I looked through that before I posted and did what they said.  The only thing I couldn't find was a Utility disk for my particular HDD. How do you format a HDD that your computer will not recognise?

  • I manually deleted my iphone photos through windows explorer now it wont sync new music or backup. any help please?

    i manually deleted my iphone photos through windows explorer now it wont sync new music or backup. any help please?

    If those photos were part of the camera roll, they were part of the backup as well and you can restore from the latest backup you made on the old computer. After that transfer the photos to the new PC, follow this article: iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    Then sync again to the new one, which will erase the phone again.
    You can also try to copy the backup folder from the old computer to the new one and see if the old backups get recognized, check this article to find the location on your PC:
    Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes
    If the photos were not taken with the phone, your data is gone, photos you sync from iTunes to the phone are not included in the backup.

    Hey martinzg!
    I have a couple of suggestions for you regarding this issue. First, here is an article about resuming your interrupted downloads from the Mac App Store:
    Mac App Store: How to resume interrupted downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4485
    If you are still unable to get the games to download after attempting to resume the interrupted download, you may need to report an issue with your purchases:
    How to report an issue with your iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, or iBooks Store purchase

  • Itunes installed on new laptop & i'm stuck, help please!?

    I got a new laptop yesterday & wanted to transfer my itunes library to my new computer.
    I plugged in my iphone & it's only transfered purchases from my iphone into itunes. None of the purchase i made on my old computer's itunes are showing.
    I made 3 purchases on itunes on my new laptop, synched my iphone but the new purchases haven't transferred to my iphone!!
    What can i do? I'm missing around 100 songs in my itunes library.
    My phone has all the music on it that it had before i plugged it in to my new laptop

    +Is there any way of keeping the playcount?+
    Yes, it's easy. Get the itunes database file from your old laptop.
    The easiest way is to copy the entire c:\users\username\music folder, which will include all the subfolders. The file
    iTunes Library.itl
    is in that folder. It's what holds the ratings, play counts, etc. If you have that, you won't get the message about your iphone being synced to another PC.
    There's another folder you need if you have iphone apps and don't want to lose the app data. Ask over in the iphone forums about that, as I don't have an iphone.

  • New hard drive issues - need help please!

    So I just installed a new hard drive on my Ideapad S10 and having the following issues.  I get a PXE-E61 : Media test failure check cable & PXE-M0F : Exiting  Broadcom PXE rom message.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drive to check the connection and still get the error, it's a brand new drive.  Also I noticed in the BIOS that the hard drive is showing up under ssd disk and SATA hdd shows - none.  If I restore the BIOS settings to original then the drive will show up under ssd but the SATA controller mode will show the AHCI setting instead of the Compatible setting it should use.
    I'm really stuck here and don't know what else to check.  My orginal drive is dead so I'm trying to get this working so I can install windows.  If anyone could help out it would be greatly appreciated - Thanks!

    Full Disclosure:  I don't know your machine.
    That PXE error probably doesn't indicate a problem - or not the problem, anyway.  Your machine boots, doesn't see an operating system on the hard drive (or doesn't see a hard drive at all) and tries to boot over the network and fails. That's what the PXE error is about.
    As to the SATA problems, what happens when you boot your Windows install media?  Does that see a hard drive?

  • New/Additional phone line question- help please!

    Hi
    I am after some advice, and every time I call BT I get passed around as I am not 100% on what to ask for, or who I should speak to.
    Basically, we have 2 phone lines coming into the house.  One line/number + broadband signal goes via a repeater to the office which is a separate building across the garden (approx 300m but I am not sure on the actual distance).  The signal is not great, for the broadband particularly - often drops out etc.  To solve this we would like a new physical line installed in the office building to give us a separate phone and broadband package to that of the main house, but ideally keeping the same number as we currently use in the office.  The office is used everyday for working from home and so is important to us.
    Does that make sense?  I fully expect that an engineer will need to look at the site, and there will be a (significant) charge for the line to be installed (underground pipe work for cables already exists from house to office building and so this could be utilised).  Do I just place an order for a new line online, and wait for an engineer's visit?  Can I deal with changing the number at a later date if that is easier for the system to deal with?  Last time I rang BT, I was told I needed to speak to the exceptions team, when I was put through to them she told me all I needed to do was speak to customer services, customer services thought I was trying to move home and then didn't seem to understand what I needed (but it was probably how I was explaining it!).
    I would be so grateful if someone could point me in the right direction, or give me tips on what to ask for.  My main worry is keeping the same phone number as it would be so much easier.
    Thanks in advance

  • New to iCloud and need help please with getting it working

    I've got an iPad 2 and an iPhone 5 and have decided that it's about time to set up iCloud on my devices. I have followed the instructions on the website and in the icloud settings on both devices have switched on mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, safari, notes, photostream (my photo stream-on), documents and data, find my iphone, and icloud backup on. I have ensured that both devices have been backed up and automatic downloads on iTunes & App stores have all been switched on.
    I have not yet set up my PC for iCloud.
    My understanding is that icloud will sync new downloads and photos etc so I have just tried taking a picture on my iphone, expecting it to appear in my camera roll on my iPad and nothing has happened.
    Please can someone advise me if I am doing something wrong or how to resolve this.
    Many thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • I'm new to java and need help please

    I have an assignment involves modifying a previous assignment. the code for the previous assigment is shown below.(it was required to be done as an applet this assigment can be an application or an applet) I'm trying to modify this code to read a text file (items.txt) that looks like this:

    I need to load the item# and price from the text file into arrays(I have no clue how to use multi-dimensional arrays in java and would prefer not to)
    I need to search the arrays based on the values entered by the user (item # and quantity) calculate the total for that item then create a new text file which has each line item for that order in the form:
    item# quant price per item total(price per item*quant entered)
    also also I need to be able to display the four items listed above after each loop as well as all the previous item number and quantities they selected until they indicate they don't want to select anymore.
    I've been working on this for days and it seems like nothing I try works. My major problems are:

    multi-dimensional arrays in java and would prefer not
    to)That's good, because you shouldn't use multidimensional arrays here. You should have a one-dimensional array (or java.util.List) of objects that encapsulate each line.
    I've been working on this for days and it seems like
    nothing I try works. My major problems are:
    1. I have no idea how to read the text file and load
    those 2 items into their respective arrays
    2. I can't seem to create a textfile that looks like

    First answer: You shouldn't ask multiple questions in the same thread. Ask a specific question, with an appropriate subject line (optionally, assign the number of Dukes you are willing to give for the help). When question #1 is answered and question #2 arises, it's time for a new thread (don't forget to give out Dukes before moving on).
    Second answer: I think you need a Transfer Object (http://java.sun.com/blueprints/patterns/TransferObject.html). It's whole purpose is to hold/transfer instance data where it is needed. Create a class something like this:
    public class ItemTO
        private String _number;
        private String _description;
        private double _price;
        public ItemTO( String number, String description, double price )
            _number = number;
            _description = description;
            _price = price
        // Getter/Setter methods go here
    }then, in the code where you read in the file do something like this:
    BufferedReader input = null;
    try
        input  = new BufferedReader( new FileReader( "c:\\a.txt" ) );
        List items = new ArrayList();
        String line;
        String itemNumber;
        String itemDescription;
        double itemPrice;
        while ( (line  = input.readLine() ) != null )
         System.out.println( line );
            itemNumber = // Parse it from line
            itemDescription // Parse it from line
            itemPrice = // Parse it from line
            items.add( new ItemTO( itemNumber, itemDescription, itemPrice ) );
    catch ( FileNotFoundException fnfe )
        fnfe.printStackTrace();
    catch ( IOException ioe )
        ioe.printStackTrace();
    finally
        try
            if ( input != null )
                input.close();
        catch ( Exception e )
            e.printStackTrace();
    }As for how to parse the line of the file, I'll leave that to you for now. Are the three values delimited with any special characters?

  • MX7 Install Help Please

    I have installed ColdFusion MX7 Enterprise on my Fedora Core
    4 (Plesk 8) Unix Server. It is installed to the deafult directory
    /opt/coldfusionmx7/ and the installation went well.
    To access my administrator panel I was told to go to the
    following
    http://72.35.76.29:8500/CFIDE/administrator/login.cfm
    where the ip address is my server address. I was also told to try
    http://72.35.76.29/CFIDE/administrator/login.cfm
    without the port as the port number was only needed for a debian
    install which is not my case, I was a Unix install on Fedora Core
    4.
    As you can see the adminstrator panel does not come up. I
    don't know how to access the panel and need help, I've tried
    everything.
    I have configured plesk, it see's Coldfusion and works
    however there is no way for me to access the administrator panel
    which in turn doesn't help me much. Please help..... what do I
    do?????

    My installation looks good, I have all successful and 1
    warning which is with the c++ compatibility pack (I've been told
    this is normal?). I have attached the log for your viewing.
    My server has Apache so I was told NOT to install the
    internal web server but the external web server. I would pressume
    this is correct? If not that would be my mistake!
    Secondly when you install an internal webserver it looks for
    files in the /opt/coldfusionmx7/wwwroot/ Directory which would be
    the default
    http://localhost:8500/ correct?
    So if I have an EXTERNAL webserver
    (perl-Apache-ASP-2.59-fc4.build80060613.20) and I am on Fedora Core
    4 (Linux) . So what is my default directory now? From what I can
    see if you just go to my
    http://ipaddress it is the directory
    for the following on my server. /var/www/vhosts/default/htdocs
    I thought I heard someone say I had to move my CFIDE
    directory???? Where to? I appreciate the help and your anticipated
    response as I would like to get this up and running (it was a
    rather very expensive software piece ha-ha)!

  • Clean install help please.

    I am in the middle of giving my macbook a clean install and the second install disc has stopped working 9 min's from completion and ejected out. I have tried to install again, Clean the disc and still same problem. Is there a way of reversing this clean install or do i have to wait until i get a new second disc to continue with the process.
    Any help would be greatly accepted thanks.

    Hi macboy,
    you can re-do clean install but opt out most of the application like iMovie, iDVD, iWeb, and iPhoto.
    try to opt out one by one, if it will said that you will need second disk during installation ,then opt out couple more, or install the essential system first (all in disk #1) and after that, insert disk 1 again and choose install software bundled only, and install the application one at a time.
    Then if you come accroes the application that won't installed , just cancel and re-install that using your nes second disk.
    Good Luck.
