Re: X580-UD5 wont boot!! C1 error

Some more problems lol, <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
When I start to install <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:place w:st="on">Vista</st1:place> 64 i get to the drive selection screen and its blank, no HD to select.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
1TB <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Hitachi</st1:place></st1:City> is plugged into SATA1 port, Bios is set to "load optimized default".<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I even formatted the drive on a different <st1:place w:st="on">Vista</st1:place> computer but still nothing.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Any ideas? <o:p></o:p>

try it in the other ports,do you boot from cd drive with vista64 cd in it?

No luck yet,

I boot using Vista 64 in the dvd drive, get to the "select drive" screen and its blank, in advance options everything is grayed out (to create partition etc).

I am trying to format this drive and install Vista 64 on my other computer but same thing, the hd never shows up.

any idea what might be the problem?

Re: X580-UD5 wont boot!! C1 error

if its not showing up on ur other pc then its the hard drive,are there any jumpers on the hard drive? sometimes you have to remove them to enable sata, they should be near the connector slots,also are you using the same sata cable to try hard drive? try with another one

It had no jumpers.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Again I went out and got a different hd, a Western Digital this time, and no problems. Booted up fine, installed <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:place w:st="on">Vista</st1:place>, now the computer works like a champ.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
The guy at canadacomputers laughed when I told him I have a Hitachi Deskstar, or Dead Start what he called it. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I have a pretty bad taste in my mouth after this experience, one order and I get dead ram and dead hd.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Will need to RMA both. <o:p></o:p>
