bios doesn't recognise sata drives. Please help me as i'm losing it
My motherboard died so I got an RMA but when I rebuilt none of my sata drives (2xwd raptors, 2xsolid states and 1 blue ray drive) were detected by the bios. After searching on the net I couldn't find a solution and assuming the boad was broken did another RMA. The new board arrived but the same problem occurred. I've connected an IDE cd drive and this works. I've tried a different PSU, default bios settings, reseting the bios, one stick of ram, taking out one of the gpu's and removing the sound card Please can someone help me as I've had a £2000 ornament for the last two months. Thanks in advance for any assistance. applelover system os - win 7 mb asus rampage II extreme cpu - i7 950 gpu 2x 295 gtx psu 1000w sound card - xfi fatality ram - 12gig 2000mhz |

post BIOS screen pics please.
on my gigabyte board, when SATA is set as RAID, i get the "no drive detected" in the bios, but it works fine. If i set to SATA as IDE, they show up, but RAID doesn't work..go figure. Last edited by maxgull : 11-26-2009 at 06:54 PM. |

can't really get screen shots as I can't get into windows. I've connected an IDE drive and the bios doesn't recognise that either. Strangely it does recognise my IDE dvd drive though. I've flashed the bios to the latest version but this has had no effect
thanks applelover |

For one, you HAVE TO make sure that you have the sata drives connected in to the sata slots in order, IE sata 1 plugged in, then sata 2 plugged in and ect.
you can't just plug them in randomly |
