specs are in sig, i have a 400w fortron, im thinking this might be the reason seeing as 2 other hdd's failed me right before this like a month ago and i just installed these new hdd's a day ago. I'm not even sure if those hdd's actually failed.

Basically I have 2 500gb hdd's, a 250 gb hdd, and a dvd burner hooked up thru sata. I just put the 2x 500 gb's and the sata dvd burner in yesterday. I turn on my pc today and it takes forever to get to the windows screen and when it does nothing shows up that i have installed thru sata
 
Possibly could be a motherboard issue. I had a motherboard once that did this. I would have to unplug the sata from the motherboard, and then replug it back in, and then power the pc back on again. I only had one hard drive, but I found that if I plugged it into SATA1 it would do that normally, so I plugged it into SATA2 and I never had another issue.

1. Turn off system.
2. Unplug sata from motherboard, then replug it in.
3. Power on system
4. Enter the BIOS.
5. Check that it detected the hard drives.
6. Boot to windows, and see if it works.
