Hello!
My name is alvin, hope you guys are doing great! Need a little help here today. I reformat my com recently to change to my new SSD. Problem is, everything went ok but it doesnt dectect my DVD now. I am using MSI h61m-p25(b3). i know its pretty old but still hoping i can keep using it. Using Win7. SSD is on sata port 4 on the motherboard.
Few things worth noting:
1. DVD drive was working when i used it to reformat yesterday.
2. I only realized DVD drive is not working today. It probably didnt work immediately after the reformat?
3. When i switch the dvd to sata port 4, the PC could detect the dvd. When i use the other 3 ports it doesnt detect (means doesnt show up in my computer and device management).
4. Cables are definitely connected properly.
5. PSU is definitely working properly.
6. I also wish to connect a extra hard disk to my motherboard after fixing this problem!
My best guess is the sata ports are disabled somehow. What do you think? please keep instructions simple! thank you in advance
