Everything was working fine till one day i needed to reformat my HD. i found my XP disk, but found that my dvd cd rom drives were missing from the comp. no biggie, i reinstalled the dvd rom inside and plugged it in fine. now when ever i turn the computer on the IDE led wont show any activity, i can hear the HD unit spin and such but no activity...
I also rebuilt the system since then twice, checking all possible connections. ive tried 3 different sata connectors also.. i dont think the hard drive is being read... why all the sudden.... by the way this HD unit is Western digital 2000 , 200 GB caviar. this unit by the way is like...
6 years old.
4 years ago i had the same problem, a good refit of the wires would solve the problem... but now no matter how i refit, reconnect... it would show zero activity... please help... any idea's?? thanks
