no partitions showing

Hi,

Families pc didnt boot.

Put the hd in my pc, formatted with "format as".

Now I put the hd back in, start from bootable usb and it says it cannot find station. There are no partitions and my only option is to browse to find a driver of some sort.

Its a preinstalled pc, what the heck do I do? Cant find the driver, its an asus pc. Can check more info if you ask me.

You put their Hard Drive in your PC and formatted it?

Yes, the way you format a usb drive.

So I assume it deleted something on the hd that wouldnt be deleted if Id do a proper format, I know.

Im not 100% sure but if it was formatted i would say you borked the data on that drive

I don't care about the actual data if that is what you mean. If you mean the important stuff that bricks a hardrive when it gets deleted, then does thst mean theres nothing I can do?

The default, just clicked format. I highly assume its ntfs then?

most likely, but i would do a quick format as ntfs once more just to validate that i didnt make something wrong, and it might be a disk's problem

Alright folks, I'm sorry wasting your time.

Here was the problem: molex power cable wasn't plugged in.

Fuck me, I think I literally have autismo.
