Solve : Cant detect Hard drive? |
|
Answer» I have two hard drive's one is 250g's and the other is 80g's i INSTALLED Jolicloud OS on the (empty) 80g hard drive. Using Jolicloud was fun but now i need the 80g hard drive for something else. So i try uninstalling it. But when i tried removing the OS with my Windows 7 OS from the Remove software in the control PANEL it tells me that the drive is unaccesseble the basically mean's it cant access the 80g hard drive so i look under my computer and it's not showing the 80g hard drive. Click start then search and type in diskmgmt.msc and press enter. This will open disk management. In disk management delete the 80 gig partition then create and format a new partition on the hard drive. i cant really delete it because when ever i take out the 80g hard drive my Windows 7 OS wont start up it give me a message error 4 or some other number. but i have to be able to uninstall it first some how..Boot to the windows DVD and choose startup repair.

You installed Windows or Jolicloud via usb? Quote from: JJ 3000 on July 14, 2010, 02:14:08 AM You installed Windows or Jolicloud via usb? both but i found a solution. all i did was make a bootable windows 7 installation from my copy of windows 7 and run cmd from there. when on cmd type in "bootsect/nt60 C:" <-- (C: is the drive that doesn't boot) reboot and if that doesn't work try that again but this time type "bootrec/fixmbr" in the cmd window. Hope this helps to anyone dumb enough like me to try to install a OS specifically designed for a Netbook. GOOD job! |
