    ok, new hard drive on hp dv5000 notebook, vista ult, does nothing, cursor blinks

     

    also for sh*ts & giggles, tried win XP sp2 on same new drive, it says cannot detect any hard drives

     

    removed drive and reinstalled it       NO CHANGE

    Hi

     

    You will need to go to the website of the hard drive manufacturer, the motherboard manufacturer or HP and get the latest SATA drivers/firmware for that device.
