Re: Laptop 2.5 hdd on pc

tomandjerry,

The link to the converter in your post does not work. What you're trying to do should work - provided the 2.5" hard drive is configured/cabled properly and your PC sees the drive upon power-on. Go into your PC's BIOS setup and make sure the 2.5" drive is recognized.

What OS are you attempting to install? Was there some other OS already installed on that 2.5" drive? If so, you might need to first remove that old partition before attempting to install a new OS.

Check out:

What is the make/model of the PC/motherboard your attempting to install that 2.5" drive on? What is the make/model of the 2.5" drive? What OS are you attempting to install? What, if any, OS was installed on that 2.5" drive prior to this?
