I took out my old IDE hard-drive to install windows 7 on, but it refuses to format correctly. I have tried formatting it using acronis disk director and vista's build in thing, but the computer refuses to be able to use the drive. I ran the windows 7 installation CD, but and tried formatting it there, but it told me it was unable to format correctly.
 
BIOS & Windows saw the drive and its specs. I pulled the drive out and found that a pin was bent, thanks for giving suggestions though hehe.
