Installed 2nd hard drive and icon appeared in My Computer. Then it
disappeared. System shows new hard drive installed and working
properly. How do I get it to appear in My Computer page? Tnx

Right click on My Computer and select Manage. On the following screen,
click on Disk Management. Partition, Format and assign the new drive a
letter. Only then will it be visible in Windows Explorer.
