Thanks Jaymon,
I tried that. I did up to step 6 : "If the driver file points to the USBSTOR.
SYS file, the correct driver file is being used. Please proceed to STEP
THIRTEEN" and jumped to step13 "STEP THIRTEEN - Check to see if your Bios
will support your Hard Disk Drive Some computer's BIOS will not work
correctly with large disk drives. Check with your computer manufacturer to
see if you need a BIOS upgrade to support your Hard Disk Drive." and I did
that too I got the newer version of BIOS and downloaded and ran it but
apparently did not correct the problem.
