    Hi team,I'm hoping you might be able to help with a persistent and very strange issue I'm having. I have recently acquired a new motherboard ROG STRIX GAMING z690-G WIFI and CPU Intel 12th gen i9-12900K, and want to install Windows 10 as my OS.I have three hard drives. Two of these were new M.2 one PCIe 1, one PCIe 4 and one of these was my old 2.5 SATA hard disk which previously had an installation of Windows 10 on it.Upon attempting to boot the disk with my old installation of Windows on it, I get a blue screen with the error ''Inaccessible Boot Device.''

    windows 7 not detecting hard drive

    I have this model WD5000AAKS

    It prompts me to load a driver, but according to the windows website, it should not. This hard drive is detected in my bios, but not by the OS. This is a fresh install, and there is currently no OS installed on this hard drive.

    Does anyone have any solutions for me to try?

    Thanks

    HELP - Drive not recognized in Windows 7 install

    Im having a hell of a time trying to install a clean install of windows 7 on a Samsung spinpoint f1 320GB drive.

    The BIOS sees the drive... BUT the RAID controller won't see it if I try to add it to an array.

    The command prompt (recovery prompt in w7 setup) also sees the drive as C:\, and can format it, rename it, etc... I can also browse the drive for drivers (its empty, but it shows up in the device list when if i click to install controller drivers)

    But when I go to try and install W7 to that drive it doesn't show up...

    :/ im a bit lost... also neither fixmbr or fixboot are part of the recover console on w7 so im stuck with chkdsk, which says the drive is fine, and format, which I have done twice...

    helppppp..

    I forgot to add that I have a second drive, a Seagate 500GB 7200.11, that DOES show up in the setup...
