SATA drives are Offline
Before installing Vista, I backed up all my necessary files onto 2 SATA
drives. installed Vista on my old IDE hard drive, and now I can't access the SATA drives. They appear in my BIOS, and in the Disk Manager, but they show up as Offline in the Disk Manager. When I right click on them, my only options are to Convert to Basic Disk. But this will format the drives. How can I read these drives and get my data? |
