  1. I tried it on another desktop and it is being shown in disk management. I formatted it and it works on my old desktop, but when I moved the hard drive over again, nothing is being shown in disk management.
  2. I decided to upgrade my PS4 Pro hard drive to SSD, so I transferred the HDD from PS4 to my PC. However, my PC does not recognize/see the drive either in bios/disk management or in run CMD-->disk part-->list volume. I have tried switching the sata cables and I'm sure it has power. Any ideas? My specs are: MSI B450 Tomahawk motherboard Ryzen 5 2600 GTX 1080 GPU 16GB DDR4 vengeance ram EVGA 650W PSU I have read somewhere that installing SATA raid drivers may fix it, but I believe I already installed that (I got the AM4 PIDE/SATA driver from MSI. https://us.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B450-TOMAHAWK#down-driver&Win10 64) Please let me know if there is something else I needed to install. Thank you for your help.
  3. Problem solved: Okay I was just fiddling with the overclock of my x5680 cpu in the bios. I put my OC setting at CPU ratio setting (multiplier) 21; BCLK frequency 190; CPU voltage @ 1.25. This has fixed my reboot problem. I noticed that once I put my multiplier to 20 or less, I would get the restart problem again. So in conclusion, set your CPU ratio setting (multiplier) to 21.
  4. Things I tried so far: I thought maybe my bios isnt up to date so I successfully updated it. I also realized maybe since the RAM im using isnt from the same maker and is a bit different in specs (though both DDR3) I should just remove one set (leaving me w/ 16gb RAM). I restarted and all i got was a black screen on bootup (nothing pops up, can't even get to bios. No beeps either). So i tried to reset CMOS by trying the jumper thing (which I can't be sure I got it right; Mine has 2 row of 3 pins; the jumpers were on the left so I moved them to the right and powered on and then moved the jumpers back) and also tried to remove that circular battery thing. I still have the black screen with nothing on my screen. I tried to restart and I'm still getting the black screen w/ nothing. Scared I might've bricked my computer, I put the ram in their original position, took out GPU and plug it back in --> computer turned on again, but back to 2 restarts at bootup.
  5. i switched the fans to PWR_FAN and pump to CPU_FAN. However, instead of restarting once, it restarts twice on bootup.
  6. I have a really old computer and thought I'd upgrade it by adding a new CPU and aio cooler. My current specs are: ASUS P6X58D Premium Xeon X5680 (it was originally i7-930) Cooler Master MLX-D12M-A20PW-R1 MasterLiquid 120 CPU Cooler (was air cooler) --> fans were attached to the CPU_FAN and pump was attached to PWR_FAN --> please comment if connections are wrong. Rosewill 750W PSU 24Gb DDR3 240GB SSD Windows 10 Pro After installing the aio cooler, the computer restarted 2-3 times automatically w/i a few seconds after turning it on and I also got the CPU fan error! message. (The computer did not do this prior to the installation w/ the air cooler). I did some research and fixed the cpu fan error! message by going to BIOS --> power tab --> Monitor Hardware tab --> CPU Fan Speed from N/A (Not available) to IGNORE. After this I no longer got the fan error message and instead of restarting 2-3 times on bootup, it now restarted one time after bootup. Is there any way to remove this restart and allow it to bootup like normal? Note: CPU temp were improved ~12 Celsius after aio cooler. Thank you for your help
