Just started my computer today and it came up saying 'press f10 for recovery' - suffice to say I poo'd my pants and hit f8 instead to select my start-up disk (c) (long shot but it booted). I can boot into windows but my second hard disk (d) is not working, its there but it just keeps saying it needs formatting as there is no file system present (was ntfs)! Any idea why this might have happened, motherboard or drive failure? BTW the drive is showing up in the drive management as healthy and active but I just can’t open it up without having to reformat it.
Luckily im pretty anal about backups so I haven’t lost anything but im guessing I can’t rely on this drive anymore?
Also I was going to update my bios but my computer does not have a floppy drive, is there a way of doing this with out one? (Stupid I know, don’t know why I didn’t have one put in)
Many thanks for any help!
