I own a Dell latitude E6330 and my hard drive recently crashed. With the replacement hard dive, I have been unable to clean install windows 8. The BIOS shows the presence of the hard drive with no diagnostic issues but windows 8 installation indicates a driver is required in the initial stage. I have also seen an error showin invalid partition table. Are there compatibility issues. Its a Toshiba SATA 500GB drive
