Windows 10: Massdrop CTRL keyboard and 2 TB harddrive not being recognized by windows

I have tried everything possible to get my PC to recognize my harddrive, but nothing has worked, my BIOS recognizes the drive as valid, I have reinstalled windows twice now, nothing. I have reinstalled all of my device drivers and that has not worked, I have reseated my ram, disconnected and reconnected the drive, and nothing has worked. At this point I think I have tried at least 10 websites that have all had different "solutions" to my issues, none of them have worked, I have updated windows, reverted back changes, I am honestly considering switching to linux because of this, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

How do I get Windows 7 to install on a full 3 TB HDD?

Thanks everyone, much appreciated. Giving this a shot now. I already try converting to GPT once already and it worked, but still only showed 2 TB, however, the steps listed your link Newteki have a few added steps I did not do. Also, I decided to go with Windows 8 Pro since Windows 7 was giving me so much trouble with this issue, yet it still gave me the same problems of only showing 2 TB then a separate 700ish GB drive.

Here goes nothing, thanks all, will be reporting back soon, hozzah!

You may could divide into two partitions 1.5GB a piece and that would be easier.
