Need help with setting up secondary HDD [URGENT REPLY REQUIRED!]

I installed a WD20EZRZ 2tb HDD into my computer as a secondary drive but i need help setting it up in windows.

After setting in BIOS and even changing the SATA ports (I'm having to forgo the optical drive until i get a SATA splitter).

In the BIOS only the second drive shows up, The main OS drive still boots but the second only shows up.

It gets even weird, The 2tb drive has merged with my main 1tb drive, CrystalDiskInfo, HWmonitor, And windows only see the secondary drive because its merged with my main one?

CrystalDiskInfo has a "Caution" due to "Current Pending Sector count", This is peculiar and i don't know whats happened.

There's no Master/Slave in SATA so what is going on here?

Any help will be appreciated https://imgur.com/a/9qgd7

I need help ASAP as it could damage my data.

I have an MSI H61-M Mobo.

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
