    Why wont my old drives from a windows 10 system not work via sata when I put them in to my...


    I have a new PC with windows 11 installed. But I have old drives from my old windows 10 PC that I forgot to attach to the motherboard when upgrading from windows 10 to 11 on that new system. If I plugin the drives I keep getting blue screened and now I can't access those any more. How should I fix this?

    IDE with SATA wont recognize

    Hi all!
    I tried today an old IDE i had 3 years ago
    The IDE itself works
    It turns out that the computer wont recognize the SATA drive 1TB i have
    Any suggestions?

    Also, when i formatted with windows 7, it didn't install the updates
    For example, gpu, network drivers, mouse etc

    And in device manager, it even writes it Hitachi 1TB

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Now that I hooked up new SATA drive pc wont boot on old drive?

    I got a new sata drive and hooked it up along side my old ide drive.Was planning on copying everything I need from ide to sata. I got into windows once, but now that I rebooted I cant get past the beginning of windows. So what I was going to do is just install windows on the sata drive but when I remove the ide drive and try to install windows it tells me there is no drive connected? I have no idea what is wrong, seems like my old drive is now somehow corrupted. How do I get Mobo to recognize Sata drive? *Bang Head :banghead:
