POST?Can you see the drive in windows? At least the drive letter? Even if you can't browse the drive?Check disk management within windows, and see if it sees the drive - even if it says it's "unallocated". Then run a chkdsk /r on the drive from a command prompt. This may fix it to the point of getting data off.If nothing shows up, you can try the freezer trick, and see if it lets you get into the drive that way. · actions · 2009-Mar-27 8:25 am · Fox McCloudCrazy like a fox.join:2006-07-23 Fox McCloud Member 2009-Mar-27 10:08 am Yup, if fails during POST...I can't get into windows or anything (despite the fact the first disk is fine). In any event, I decided (before you posted) to try the freezer trick....once it's been in there a bit longer, I'll see how it performs.It's so odd because the drive spins up and sounds fine...*shrug* · actions · 2009-Mar-27 10:08 am · LagzPremium Memberjoin:2000-09-03The Rock Lagz to Fox McCloud Premium Member 2009-Mar-27 10:34 am to Fox McCloudAre you sure the jumper is set correctly?

Sometimes the word "Slave" or "Master" are there after the words "Primary" or "Secondary" in there as well. While the content of the message varies, the result is usually the same: The startup process lags after auto-detecting the drives, then gives me this error. I have three SATA hard drives and a DVD drive plugged in to my mb via SATA. When no HDD are detached, but I have boot media in the DVD drive, the computer starts up quickly and normally, with no errors. When any or all of the HDDs are plugged in, I receive the above error. I borrowed a HDD from my roommate, plugged it in, attempted to boot up and still received the error. None of the HDD are bad, and it would be a pretty big coincidence for all four I've tested to fail at once. What could the problem be? Feb 12, 2015 #1 copaceticjon TS Rookie Topic Starter UPDATE: When I plug in just one or two of the HDD + the DVD drive, the computer boots fine. When I plug in three HDD + DVD drive, failure! Do I perhaps need to upgrade my power supply? Feb 12, 2015 #2 Route44 TechSpot Ambassador Posts: 11,966 +70 Answered before I knew you gave an update. Give us your system specs including make and model of power supply as well as purported wattage supplied. If you can access those hard drives back up all essential information that you cannot afford to lose NOW. Secondly, how old are the hard drives, how old is the motherboard, and how lo
