  1. Internal hdd not recognized by BIOS but recognized during Windows installation.


    I have the following problem, I found an old laptop of mine, an Asus f555l. I noticed that it wasn't working properly anymore. so I tried to repair it. I've come to the following situation and I don't know what I can try. then Windows is installed on the hdd. unfortunately it is not recognized by the BIOS and therefore does not boot. however, the same internal HDD connected via adapter to a USB port works correctly and Windows starts without problems. the only thing I noticed is that if I try to reinstall Windows via external media USB, hdd is recognized by the Windows installation so

    my abit kn8 wont recognize the hdd

    Does your BIOS recognize either HDD? Loading windows onto a SATA or RAID is a pain in the ass.

    Windows installed without SATA controller now recognized as ATA133

    I some how installed windows on to my SATA HDD without the SATA controller drivers and now it's telling me it's a ATA133.*Wtf :wtf:

    Also if I install the VIA chipset drivers it recognizes the HDD as removable.

    Can I install the SATA controller through repair windows and if so how?
