Re: Basic Troubleshooting Tips after Installing a New Hard Drive The drive does not format to full capacity.
e.The drive's physical specifications exceed the translation limits imposed by the BIOS. CAUTION: If you change the drive-type values in the system setup program, you must partition and format the drive again. This erases data on the drive.
f.If you have partitioned the drive into individual logical drives, you may need to make the partitions smaller to access the full drive capacity.
g.If your computer supports LBA mode, you may need to enable LBA mode in the system setup program to access the full capacity of the drive. Refer to your computer's reference guide to find out how to enable LBA.
h.Your computer may not support drives that have more than 4,092 cylinders. Follow the instructions on page 25 for After you install your new drive, your computer will not boot, and no error message appears on the screen.
