Odd enough this happens with sata drives. I actually never figured out how to fix it myself… you can try to install some drivers for a hard drive to the bios/update bios. Other than that I don’t know. Does it detect the hard drive on start up diagnostics? ---

I have a Fujitsu as my work laptop and had this problem, just download the sata drivers and get a usb floppy drive so you can install them when installing windows by pressing I think its f3 or f5 to install 3rd party drivers. Thats the only way to get it working you cant update bios nor use a usb flash drive it must be a floppy, sucks but it works. ---

why can’t you download that? If nothing else use a rapidshare premium link generator (google, alot, they’re there) There servers download the file then give it to you. Thats if your country blocks rapidshare or whatever ---

KDS I got bored and tried your way on the computer setting next to me but it wouldn’t read the disc. Drivers merged perfectly though. Maybe I’m burning it wrong. I just dragged the files to a disc and hit burn.
