Question of the Week

 

BIOS not recognising SATA Hard Drive

Question of the Week When I started my PC the other day i received the error 'Disk boot failure , insert system disk and press enter' in the BIOS. The 160g SATA disk was quite old so i bought a new 1 TB HDD. I installed it and I am 100% sure I did it correctly, however, it was not 'recognised' either. -- Vonkanaitor
