Compaq R300
Hello:
I'm trying to replace the hard drive in my R3000 however when installed the computer doesn't recognize it. I've tried 3 different hard drives and all have the same problem. The one in it now works but I wanted to upgrade to a bigger hard drive. Any suggestions? Terry |

The one in it now works but I wanted to upgrade to a bigger hard drive. Any suggestions? Is it finding the drive in POST? If so, just run FDISK from a Windows install CD. If not, check the HD you're trying to put in isn't too big, the machine is almost certainly unable to accept anything over 128 Gb, or possibly less, depending on the BIOS. Failing that, put the new drive in an external enclosure & run it off the USB port. -- Tciao for Now! JOhn. |
