Beriallord Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I had a HDD I thought was broken one time, and I did a full format, every piece of data on it was deleted and then my PC recognized it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKHawke Posted November 23, 2011 Author Share Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) Simple, unplug it again, boot the PC up, then shut it down. Plug the HDD back in, then start yet again.I've already been doing this if you didn't read my posts. I have to have it unplugged to get my computer to boot otherwise it keeps stalling at a boot menu and doesn't go anywhere. I can't even bring up diagnostics, boot menu or any other menu by hiiting either esc, F11 or F10. I had a HDD I thought was broken one time, and I did a full format, every piece of data on it was deleted and then my PC recognized it. How am I supposed to get my computer to format it if it doesn't recognize it to begin with? When I first installed it I had to go into the computer manager to format it and set it's path so it can be recognized. It doesn't even show up the computer manager anymore.

Try it in your friend's pc whether it is detecting or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
