[QUOTE="Rozesky2, post: 320175, member: 28937"] the drives do not show up in the bios ...they are new unformatted drives. The original drive that was in the computer is doing the same thing , I cannot assign them a drive because I never get window installed ...this is in a laptop and the setting is achi if that helps But I can put an older hd 160 gig in the laptop and it is recognized and tries to boot from it... The original laptop drive and the 2 new unformatted drives are not recognized in the bios. I might also add they are not recognized as the secondary drive in a desktop I have. But the main issue is how do I get them to be recognized in the bios of the laptop to install windows 7 [/QUOTE]
