XP can not recognize second HDD
I added a new samsung spint point F1 1T hard disk (SATA) to my PC
(dell dimension 5100, which had a 250G HDD as SATA master already) .
The bios can see the new hard disk correctly. Also the boot disk
Samsung provided can see it, format it.
But when I log in XP, it can not be see anywhere, either in Disk
Management or device manager.

Any suggestion ?
