Re: Why doesn't VISTA 64 recognize hard drive?

Hello JimDandy51,

Welcome to the Forums!

Are they SATA or IDE? They tell me Vista doesn't "like" IDE, there is a way to make them work.
But someone else will have to help you with that, as I have no experience with it!

Sorry I can't be more help.

I am trying a new install on a new machine. I have 2 WD 250 GB drives (not in RAID config). When VISTA installs it tells me the first drive is not recognized as boot drive and won't load. I tried to install on second drive and get a error message about a volume does not meet VISTA criteria (or something like that)and won't install. These are both brand new drives. Both drives are correctly identified in the BIOS. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Later Ted
