Im 100% positive that I have enough power going throughout my system but after I installed the 1070 and installed its drivers, I went to test out a game but it said it had to be reinstalled. I go look to see if the HDD is there and its not....
I laughed.

I went to Disk Management to see if it was unallocated but it doesn't even show up there!!

HELP!

Specs;
i7 6700
16GB
SSD 240GB
1TB
ASUS GTX 1070

Double check the connections in case one of them got jostled when you installed the card. With the machine powered off of course. When you restart, can you hear the HD spin up? Does device manager show the disk installed?

I would like to first state, yes I am an idiot....

I probably got to carried away with a new GPU and didn't pay attention BUT the solution is that while in stalling the GPU is disconnected the power to the HDD.....

Im dumb xD

Thanks
