that is all....
only joking. Its my advent 8117 laptop. it died a while ago and i bought a 250gb WD to replace the toshiba 120gb one...and this is what happens when i ling in the recovery cd. If i put in an XP cd to do a fresh install it wont even reconise the HD....even though BIOS does, and i get a smart warning...
HD works fine in a caddy on my flatmates computer
google has lead me to something about slipstreaming but that makes as much sense to me as spelling to teenagers :(
any help or ideas?
