To work around this issue, we need to modify registry. If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. If your system/boot drive is still a basic disk, follow these steps to correct this condition: Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe). Click the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\dmio\Boot Info Under the Boot Info key, delete the "Primary Disk Group" key.(you need to delete the CORRECT key for your DISK) Quit Registry Editor, and then reboot the computer. After the reboot, try to import the foreign disks again. =====Anas
