fujitsu hardisk problem

when using a fujitsu hard drive. When booting t Bios detects the hard disk but it cannot access it. In the setup screen in CMOS if try the autodetect feature, it again detects the hard drive but cannot read its size. The Bios detects the Hard disk's name but the name isn't really correct. BTW that is my primary hard drive, when another slave hard drive which is detected. They are IDE hard drives. Now to return to that problem it detects the name of the hard drive something like this Fujitsu MPR3XXX etc. The XXX before were really some numbers. Is this hard drive dead? then again reinstalled Windows to the secondary hard disk and windows setup says that this hard disk cannot be accessed. What should to do?


just make sure the hard drive is jumpered to master. to do this open up the case and take the hd out and check the pins accordint to the diagram that comes taped on and sometime engraved on the hard drive.
