Cannot find the second partition

[rene.klitgaard1]

Hi

Trying to install win xp Pro

I have one physical HD that I partitioned into two C (40 GB) and D (239
Gb)
But when i come to "Select partition to install Windows XP into"
window, it only finds the one big HD.

Is there somthing missing on the cd?

Tried to add WINNT.SIF (Autopartition = 0) without any luck

How did you partition / prepare the hd, you used the winxp cd?

Did you mark both as being active?
how did you partition them, using what utility?
did you make them basic or dynamic

They are both bacic, I am alomst sure that I partition with Computer
Management Console. The active menu is "ghosted", and it is only
"visible" on c partition.

I had borrowed a friend version of xp, and it find both partition. This
leads me to think that somthing is missing on the cd, but im not sure.
