Subject: Tech: lost hard drive ? From: Geoff the Duck Date: 11 Feb 05 - 03:51 PM I've just added some new equipment and need some advice. Computer is a Windows PC running WinME, with a CD-writer/DVD Rom drive and a 30GB Hard Drive. The 30BG is split into three partitions, C:Windows/D:Data/E:Programmes. I've just added a DVD burner and a 120GB (UDMA/ATA133) second Hard Drive. I put the original CD and Hard Drive on primary IDE controller. The new drive and DVD burner are on the secondary IDE controller. The DVD burner reads and plays CDs okay. The computer set-up recognises the new hard drive, but Windows is totally ignoring it. Any ideas what I need to do to get windows to admit it is there? Quack! Geoff the Duck. |
