I have my OS on a 160gb OCZ vertix SSD
Okay I came home and saw this error "0xc000000f the boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible". I reset and got the same message I was unable to enter bios so after a quick search for the error code I inserted the windows disk intending to do a system repair or reinstall. I didn't write down the exact details from the repair but one of them was somthing about a missing partition. I ran the repair 3 times with no better luck so I tried a new install. Now when I tried to reinstall windows the drive wasn't recognized by the windows loader. I thought this was odd so I removed the drive and put into my toaster intending to reformat it with my laptop. My HDD dock has usb hotswap function as well as esata, using esata the computer needs to be restarted to recognize the drive. When I tried to connected it with esata I couldn't get past the factory screen or get into the bios, or the boot menu. when I connected it with usb I got the windows new hardware tone but nothing was showing up in windows explorer. I swapped it out with an old harddrive and it popped right up so I figure the dock it working.
The drive is only a year and a half old and I'm at a loss as to how to solve this problem If I can't get either system to recognize the drive. I'm at a complete loss Please Please Please help.
