if have or can borrow another drive to load windows on to see what happens. try reseating the data connector & try plugging data cable into different socket on motherboard like sata 1 instead of sata 0.

try connecting the hard drive to a different sata port on the motherboard. switch sata cables with the optical drive if it is sata.
