sometimes you can't depending on your bios. if it's that important, open the chasis and manually remove the ide or sata cable.
If your 10GB hard disk is not detected, you dont need to change any bios mode. The motherboard will have problem detecting the hard drive. Search for your bios updates to get your hard drive detected.
1. Both relate to hardware, but device drivers are stored in hard drive
Sorry to tell you, but your computer isn't recognizing the drive because your drive is dead. You have to buy a new hard drive and an operating system or a whole new computer. That ticking is a clear sign that the drive is dying, if the bios does not even see it, then at that point its already gone.
Some BIOS support a method ofdata transfer that allow multiple data transfers each time software requests data. This method is called block mode and should be used if your hard drive and BIOS support it. However, if you are having problems with hard drive drive errors, you can try disabling block mode in CMOS setup.
Hard Drive (Boot from CD) - Tries to boot, loads BIOS, but won't load OS BIOS Battery might be dead - Replace Battery Power supply (if completely dead)
hard drive
You should be able to select the boot order from the bios, check the order in the bios
hard drive type
As the "primary master".
Presumably by size you mean capacity? The BIOS determines how much hard drive memory your computer can address so if you are upgrading your hard drive I suggest you check Toshiba's website and download the latest BIOS for your machine.
BIOS is only to detect the drivers. You will see each driver in the BIOS setting. If you have 2 hard drives, you will see 2 drives in BIOS,but if BIOS Only recognize 1,that means 1 drive have a problem. Happen to me many times. Then when finally you are in windows(desktop)then you click on my computer and click on every hard drive then you will see the size of every drive. But not the 1 that was not recognized,because it will not be present.
S.M.A.R.T. System
The computer BIOS will decide which will be read first.
A CD-ROM drive is not needed to boot the computer. Just put the hard drive first in the boot order in the BIOS.
Once the hard drive is installed in the computer, you must fdisk then format it the way you want. Next, you should set the bios to boot from the OS installation disk.
c. jump drive
To remove a partition on a slave hard drive you can go into the BIOS. You should look up a guide if you plan to do this.
