2nd Hard Drive

Guest

I've moved a back-up drive (an 80G. western digital) from an old tower to a
new one that I set up w/ XP. The jumpers are set as a slave just like it was
in the old tower. The computer recognizes the hard drive it self and the
partitions that are formatted in NTFS, but shows no data on it. All the
partitions show as 100% free space. If I were to put it back in the old
tower (running 2000) it shows all the data. Why won’t the new system show
any of the data on the drive?

Do you have drive "overlay" software installed...
or the "Go Back" utility ???
