[FIXED] agggghhh MY Tunes My Tunes????

Post by rovingcowboy »

okay got your attention.

this is my computer i use for my jukebox.

it has mm 3.2 latest version.

last night when mediamonkey closed the computer restarted then it defragmented. then restarted again.
that is normal timers, it then sat there 10 minutes and started mediamonkey up. then sat there for 5 minutes
to start the playlists on the half hour mark. the playlist is the only thing that did not work it tried to start,
but i noticed all the songs now have the name of or number of the harddrive in place of the letter code for the hard drives.

this caused me to go to my computer area in explorer to find the proper hd's for each group of songs so i could reset the
local urls.

but to my surprise windows did not list the hd's it only listed the c drive and another hd i use for swapfile. which both are connected with gray cables to the mb slots. the hd's with music are conntected to the mb via the raid card in the pci slot.
i checked the driver for the raid card and the card its all seated in the slot and according to windows working properly.
but the hd's can't be found they are not even found by the bios which is set to auto locate drives.

can any tell me what is goning on with that is it the power supply or something else.? :o i got to have my tunes back. :(

If you right click on "My Computer" and select manage (stop me if this is too obvious) then select "Storage" what do you see? Are the drives listed there?

If not then it's likely a hardware issue with the RAID controller. If they are... Well, that's more problematic 'cause it's likely a drive issue.

What do you see?

I am so so so so so happy for you! I know the horror of potentially losing one's music collection. Good show, sir.
