Cause Solution
Hard disk has bad sectors or has failed. 1. In Windows 7, click Start, click Computer, and right-click on
a drive. Select Properties, and then select the Tools tab.
Under Error-checking click Check Now.
In Windows 10, type file in the taskbar search box, and
then select File Explorer from the list of applications. In the

Properties, and then select the Tools tab. Under Error
checking click Check.
2. Use a utility to locate and block usage of bad sectors. If
necessary, reformat the hard disk.

le.
In Windows 7, click Start, expand Computer, and right-click on a
drive. Select Properties, and then select the Tools tab. Under
Error-checking click Check Now.
In Windows 10, type file in the taskbar search box, and then

and then select the Tools tab. Under Error checking click Check.
Drive not found (identied).
Cause Solution
Cable could be loose. Check cable connections.
The system may not have automatically recognized a newly
installed device.
See reconguration directions in the Solving hardware installation
problems on page 78 section. If the system still does not
recognize the new device, check to see if the device is listed within
Computer Setup. If it is listed, the probable cause is a driver
problem. If it is not listed, the probable cause is a hardware
problem.
If this is a newly installed drive, run the Computer Setup utility
and try adding a POST delay under Advanced > Power-On
Options.
The device is attached to a SATA port that has been hidden in
Computer Setup.
Run the Computer Setup utility and ensure Device Available is
selected for the device's SATA port in Security > Device Security.
Drive responds slowly immediately after power-up. Run Computer Setup and increase the POST Delay in Advanced >
Power-On Options.
