[QUOTE="Rozesky2, post: 320155, member: 28937"] I was restarting a computer and when it booted up it said to put in a bootable disk. So I tried a 160 gig hd with xp on it and it found it. But when I tried not 1 but 2 new 500 gig WD hd it does not see them in the bios. This is a windows 7 home premium computer. I am not sure what to do to get the laptop to recognize the hds. Also I put the 2 wd harddrive one at a time as a secondary hd in the desktop computer I had and it would not recognize them either I am not sure how to fix this [/QUOTE]
