I'm sorry, my first comment wasn't very detailed.<br />
The possibilities are that a) you need to install SATA drivers (in which case it would be helpfull to know why) motherbouard do you have) and b) the hard drive is broken and therefore cannot be detected.<br />
<br />
And also, this problem occurs during Windows setup, right?

The drive works fine, as I can put it in another computer and view its contents and recover data. &nbsp;I want to do a clean install of Windows and reformat the drive. &nbsp; It is whatever motherboard Dell puts in its XPS 200. &nbsp;What driver should I look for on their site? &nbsp;SATA or Motherboard?

I am trying to re load XP onto a hard drive that was corrupted. &nbsp;Windows does not see any disks in the computer. &nbsp;It is a SATA disk, and I am wondering if there is a specific driver that I need to load before Windows. &nbsp;If so what is it and where do I get it. &nbsp;Thanks

Cant see hard drive

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
