nedgar Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Hi all, I've tried to narrow down the possibilities. Tried different power connectors, different sata cables, different drives, different formatting. Obviously, I'm forgetting something. I boot from boot-132, pop in OSX 10.5 DVD, install starts, but doesn't see the drive (Seagate 500MB Barracuda). When I run Disk Utility from the DVD, it also doesn't see the drive. I haven't changed anything in the BIOS yet. Should I?

nedgar Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 I should add that my Windows XP Install disk does see the drive and is able to partition it. Still, the Mac OSX DVD does not see it.
