Title: W 7 HD shows as a removable drive (SOLVED)
Post by: mrwoof on June 20, 2016, 07:07:31 am

W 7 SP1 Desktop
Today my HD shows as a removable drive ! A single 500Gb with partitions. It also appears in Devices & Printers. And I haven't touched anything. Appears to be working ok. Thoughts?

Futher research:

Solved this oddness by changing AHCI to SATA in the bios.

That would only work if either of us had contributed to the thread so they could see it, but I'll add (SOLVED) to the thread.
