Asus A7N8X-X sata hard drive not recognized

Franchize · Oct 18, 2003

I just put together my new system. heres the problem, my Asus A7N8X-X isnt recognizing my wd raptor sata hard drive. Jumper is properly set and all cabling is connected properly. Anyone got a heads up for me?

Head on over to www.nforcershq.com - and go into their ASUS forum, and check the FAQ for your board. I have no idea - but the information *WILL* be somewhere over on nForcers, they seem to know everything!

Asus A7N8X-X has no Serial support but if u added a SATA controller card did u install your driver. Hit F6 when loading windows to do so (might need to have a floppy with the driver on it)and add the driver on a fresh install. If your using the drive as an add on for storage simply add the driver and your set.

Did you format the hard drive ? To make sure just right click on it in My Computer and Format.

I got it figured out. TY. I needed to have sata controller driver diskette handy to load during windows installation.
