[jaypark28]

Please someone help me installing my additional HDD.. please!!! I am not good with this kind of stuff.. so please help me. As my primary HDD(as master) I am using IDE HDD UATA. I am trying to install additional HDD(SATA HDD) to expand my storage space. I already physically installed on the computer and it seems that computer is seeing the new HDD. I have already done "ADD Hardware Wiz", and it says NEW HDD is working properly. and I see it from "Device Manager" menu ( in control panel). But I cannot access it. It isn;t showing up on "MY Computer" menu. Only HDD I see is the original HDD. Anyone know what the problem is.. please help me out.

my OS is window XP home
both of HDD are maxtor diamondmax 9 plus series


Thanks

Ok try going to the control panel, administrative tools, Computer management, and then Disk Administrator. Should be able to do what you need from there. (create and format a partition on the new drive).
