P8P67 deluxe disk problem

[Markfw]

So in the bios, it see my 3 tb seagate disk drive. Under windows, in disk manager in control panel (win xp 32 bit) it does not even see the drive ! This drive used to be a full 3 tb with 2 partitions, using seagate disk manager, but after SP3 install, the disk disappeared ! And one time messing abound, it saw it, but wanted to repartion it, but now nothing.

Ideas ?

If it has a Seagate disk manager overlay, then you will need the Seagate Disk manager bootable disk to mount it
