Solve : External Hard drive.?

Answer»

Recently my computer's internal hard drive BLEW, I took my NEW external (never used YET) and Hooked it up but my computer wont recognize it as the PRIMARY hard drive. I tried totally taking out the useless one and the same thing happens. Is it possible to use the external as the MAIN hard drive? Do I need to buy a new internal? Thanks..Is this a USB drive? Then, I believe the answer depends on whether your BIOS supports booting from USB. Here's a reference that might help: http://www.addonics.com/support/faqs/usb_troubleshooting_resources.asp

For more, Google on booting from external hard drive or something similar.For a lot of reasons you need to put a new internnal drive in. Quote

Yes, I did not mean to imply that an external drive is an acceptable alternative to an internal drive.
