The "Supervisor" HAF X

[GODuk]

Well...all parts arrived. Started putting it together out of the case to make sure everything worked...nothing! Strange I thought. I decidee to take it apart and put it in the case, perhaps I missed something.

Connected everything up, nothing! Checked all connections and still nothing.

I decided to disconnect my psu and try it in the build, worked first time

The New PSU (Corsair AX850 Gold) is knackered. RMAing it.

Installed Win7, great...took just 5mins!!! on the SSD. Checked everything, GPU not detected...Agh!

Win7 installed standard adapter. So had to update driver from Device Manager (would like to give a BIG thank you to dugdiamond for helping me over the phone with this-TOP MAN, MASSIVE KUDOS).

One last thing to do, the 1Tb WD HDD is recognised in the post bios but not in 'my computer' got to update bios etc later. See if that works

Pics to follow after completion

go to control panel administrative tools computer management disk management and see if its their but just not initialized.

The SSD was there and another entry, initially it said WD etc recognising it but wasnt in My Computer. I went to update driver but it changed the actual name of it to 'disk drive'. I have since uninstalled it and taken SATA out of mobo. Will update when i finish work at 2am and put it back in. See if that works.

Is the Noctua facing right way, or will I need to swap fans round? lol

Need more help!

As you can see, the 1TB HDD is recognised in the Device Manager but I cannot see it on My Computer.

Any thoughts? lol

I have updated the BIOS now to the latest one

Agh, I cannot upload as it will exceed my 500k GLOBAL QUOTA

I'm formatting from Disk Management, see if that works.

 

[dugdiamond]

maybe the drive is not formatted and/or given a drive letter ???

the can be fixed in disk management

 

[S_I_N]

go to control panel /administrative tools/ computer management /disk management and see if its their but just not initialized.

said it here

right click on it and make a partition

 

[GODuk]

Chrers. Pics to follow when I get a larger quota and the psu back. Lol

Quick thaught. Dont you want the hot air to go out at the back of the case(exaust). Looks like the fans airflow goes towards the 5.25" bays?
