HDD does not get detectet properly
Posted: Mon Dec 08, 2003 11:48 pm
I've got the following problem:
My laptop does not detect it's hdd correctly since a few days.
I've tried an 30 GB Tochiba and a 60 gb IBM/HIT. , both get the same wrong AutoDetection settings: 8191 MB, (CHS=15871/16/63) LBA = off
When trying to boot anyway, the bios does not find any MBR, and with Linux (SUSE8.2) boot DVD LINUX can not initialize the disk.
But, to make it a bit more complicated, it works from time to time, but very often it doesn't.
I dont know anything more to fix it, so pleas help me who ever get an idea.
Thx for any help!
