Travelmate HDD "problem"
Hello guys
Yesterday my roomate decided to upgrade his HDD to his old laptop from an 20GB HDD to an 80GB HDD
His laptop is an ACER TravelMate 613 TXV with Phoenix BIOS with a Hitachi Travelstar HDD installed (20 GB 4200rpm PATA)
We bought a new WD Scorpio WD800BEVE,installed it but when we power on the laptop it hanged and after a while an error message "Fixed Disk 0 Error" Error 0200
I took a look at bios version,it was version R01.B6.On Acer Support Page i found version R01.C6 which i ve installed but the problem was still the same.
We had the new Scorpio installed to a neighbours laptop (Toshiba) and it worked out fine.
I read somewhere in the WD Knoledge Base that if the level of S.M.A.R.T. was lower than III i should reflash the bios with a new one.In this case the newest is R01C6.
Can you thing of a way to help me out on this?
Thanx in advance!
