Windows does not recognize hard drive

[Guest]

I just installed a sata hard drive and the drive is recognized in bios and in
device manager under disk drives and it also shows up in device manager under
the ide atapi controllers/ primary ide channel but is not listed with my
other two drives in "My Computer" nor does the disk manager see it. My other
two hard drives are ide and I have a sata cd rom drive that works properly.
This is an oem drive that did not come with any software. Any ideas? Thanks!

Has it been formatted and partitioned?

Seagate, and used it's disc wizard to configure the drive and all is well,
thanks!
