Swatboy79 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I just received my new force 160gb ssd and windows 7 install will not detect the drive. The bios finds it and dos tools can operate on it. I have tried other ssd's and windows 7 install finds the disk just fine along with an old 32gb ssd of mine. Why won't the f160 be seen by windows 7 install?!! I'm installing in an acer 3820TG laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swatboy79 Posted October 12, 2010 Author Share Posted October 12, 2010 I tried on my Desktop with X58 motherboard that and the same problem exists! However my Desktop has IDE/RAID/AHCI option, and when i set it to the RAID option, windows 7 install then finds the disk. Only got IDE or AHCI option in my Acer 3820TG laptop and i can't select raid. So this drive is useless to me! Looks like a Corsair firmware issue and NOT any of my hardware as I found the other brand I bought last week has no problems at all!

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted October 15, 2010 Corsair Employees Share Posted October 15, 2010 Delete the partition on the drive with Parted Magic or G-Parted and create a 100 Meg partition then see if its detected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
