    Computer won't see my new SSD

    Thanks PP. But when I checked in regedit both the start values for pciide and storahci (which is now the MSahci after Goolking after I found I had noooo Msahci!) were both already set to 0 zero. Tried again anyway, booting up and changing to AHCI in BIOS. - With just the SSD connected I got...

    Computer won't see my new SSD

    Progress, but still not entirely there! I found a message on MSI's page from someone else with a similar problem. MSI said SSD's don't work on the P55A-G55's SATA mobo connections 1-6 so I put it in #7 instead and it appeared in the BIOS. I also did some more Googling and rather than...

    Computer won't see my new SSD

    OK... Can now see the new SDD in My Computer and have cloned my other HDD to it. Thank you soooo much so far. However, I still can't see the SSD in the BIOS. So I doubt I can boot from it and wipe my current boot drive (the HDD). Do I need to update the BIOS? I think my MOBO predates SSD...

    Computer won't see my new SSD

    Hi, I have Windows 10 working fine on an MSI P55A-G55 mobo with my 1TB HDD. However to try and speed up boot times I bought a Sandisk SD Plus 240GB SSD. But when I install it it isn't seen in the BIOS or My Computer. I've tried using different SATA cables, a different power cable, a differnt...

    Epson Photo R300 - single thin banding-line on left side if printed photos

    thanks carnageX, tried that already but didn't change anything. I think it's got to be something to do with the paper feed at the time the ink starts to hit the page. Once it's all started moving it appears to be OK.

    Epson Photo R300 - single thin banding-line on left side if printed photos

    Hi, I've started getting a strange 'pale' line or banding down the very left side of my printed photos. I first noticed it on a night shot (see link below) and then on the other one link below, a daytime one. All the ink cartridges are full or almost full and I've done nozzle check and head...

    Epson Stylus Photo R300 - computer 'sees' it but no print jobs getting through.

    BTW - he also said to link it to the USB1 port. I think it was on the LPT1 beforehand. When I had removed it, then turned it back on my computer recognised it automatically and added it straight to USB1. Maybe that was the problem all along??? Who knows, it's working again that's all that matters.

    Epson Stylus Photo R300 - computer 'sees' it but no print jobs getting through.

    SOLVED - By chance I just moved to Plusnet broadband here in the UK. Rather than scripted foreign call centers they have UK based staff. I called to set up the new connection. There was a lull when my new router was re-booting, the chap on the phone sounded knowledgeable so I cheekily asked if...

    Epson Stylus Photo R300 - computer 'sees' it but no print jobs getting through.

    Hi, my Epson Stylus Photo R300 printer was bought in 2006 and has served me very well with fairly regular but light use until last month. Now, whilst it is connected to my computer, no print jobs are being received by it. Am I now the proud owner of an antique brick, or can anyone help me...
