Yep, that is the problem. The drive STILL isn't recognized in the BIOS
I did in fact find the cd that came with it (I don't know why but
didn't remember pulling it out of the package a month ago when I firs
got started on installing this new hard drive) and created the correc
diskette to start it all up, but it is still saying that there is n
hard drive. I don't know why or how but I am starting to believe tha
the hard drive is bad. It was purchased new from Office Max, it is
Western Digital drive. I am going to check it out on another compute
and see if it is recognized there. Thanks for all of your help and wis
me luck!!
