F.A.O. Terry,
I have a 600e, was working 100%, changed HD (2!, Tosh30gb and Hitachi 40gb).. NOW, cannot see HD, (either) Press F1, switch On, Easy-Start, Test All, all Ok... Boots ok from floppy, type C:\, then DIR, ent, C: drive shows no files although I Fdisk and formatted it on another machine, and copied the SYS and files on it, and checked it for working... Booted Hitachi's Drive test from floppy (ver 4.07, 25/5/06) shows size okay, BUT name, POSHIBA, MODEL IK302ICAS,,, when same test done on another machine, TOSHIBA, MODEL MK3021GAS,,, WHAT DON'T I KNOW ?,, I have also a 600 (266mcs) and it does everything (as above) the same !!!!.... (did update bios on the 600e)... Wonder if you can help PLEASE (grovel)...

Did you change the hard drive in response to the manual telling you to change the FRU because of the error code? Or did you just guess. Second does the new hard drive have a bottable partition with an operating system installed - for a 600E?
