Solve : Drive 3?

Answer»

When I started my computer and the bios opened, it say "Drive 3 not found". What "Drive 3" ?
Plz help me!

Tanx in advance 1) What is new or different since the LAST time everything worked properly (ie, new hw, new sw, virus, error, etc)?

2) What do you mean "the bios opened"?

3) Go into the bios and see if there are any hd's listed as installed / enabled that are not in your system. Quote from: Allan on January 08, 2011, 12:03:56 PM

1) I opened the computer's boxto fix a "fan problem"

2) When the logo of Dell (or an other company) appears and "Press DEL key for BIOS setup" etc. (or something like that...)

3) ...wait...If this started after you were messing AROUND inside the computer don't you think that might be relevant? Why didn't you mention that in your first post? You obviously did something inside the box that you shouldn't have (bad CONNECTION, etc).It is QUITE possible.
But I like to know what is Drive 3
In the bios, it was written: Drive 3: Pata-2All you have told us is that it's a Dell.
Let me see...

[RECOVERING disk space - old attachment deleted by admin]You could try choosing Setup Defaults once in your BIOS setup then Save & Exit. Or reinserting the CMOS battery(power cord unplugged) then try restarting the machine and check if it makes a difference. You failed to mention what type of computer/model/specs, HDs you are booting?
