Hey guys, need some serious help here.

I bought a 500GB SATA HDD a couple of months back and I just installed it a week ago in my pc. The problem is, windows cant detect the harddrive doh.gif My mobo has 2 SATA ports, one of which is plugged to my existing 160GB SATA HDD and now the second one to my new 500GB HDD. But I cant see the harddrive in windows although it can be seen in the bios. Any idea to what should i do/set in the bios? Help is much appreciated. lol thanks laugh.gif

Thats not too far off what.  biggrin.gif
Guys,
I've passed my HDD to my friend to format, and it formatted successfully. However, when i tried to boot up with that HDD, I couldn't  doh.gif After the moving bar and Windows logo, it'll just hang with a black screen.  mad.gif

Don't tell me s478 cant support 500GB HDDs? Or my mobo sata port got problem?  doh.gif

do u mean installed OS in the HDD on another pc? hmm.gif

those are Acer common issue.. shakehead.gif
heat problem for tis model is still ok..the heat not at palm side..but at the top left..i tried use it for few hours..as long as u underlay sth so the bottom not stick on table..it wont get vr hot..
erm..i think not necessary nlite but as long as hv the AHCI driver will do. not so sure about it..and yup..its using SATA hdd.
i read in forums that tis model is originally made for vista..so has issue with xp is reasonable..jz wonder y they release xp driver then.. biggrin.gif
will frequently go check the updates...and also graphic updates~ xD

so enough of the new rig post ppl, maybe can discuss on how 2 tweak ur s478 to the max happy.gif

for starters, some tips:

1. kill your IE, replace it with mozilla firefox.
2. use some lightweight antivirus, such as avira or AVG.
3. new nero introduces lots of junk and slow your system by installing some background apps. download nero micro or lite for replacement.
4. For ATI users, don't install the Catalyst Control Center. Install the drivers ONLY and ati tray tools. your ram will love you for that.

if your system is tweaked and managed properly, i can assure u no one can differentiate s478 with new system today on normal daily tasks.
*
err....i install the whole thing for ati..then disable the ccc.. biggrin.gif
IE installed but less use, antivirus was using NOD32.
Nero still using nero6.. laugh.gif
idle ram is use 21x MB. smile.gif
