Last evening I posted an issue whereas I installed a hard
drive successfully, but it will not show up in "My
Computer". Aside from just totally uninstalling it and
starting over, I'm still looking for a solution to this
problem.

Cheers to the person with the solution, I'm baffled.

Currently the settings are as follows:
Main drive jumper as Master
Secondary drive as Slave

Motherboard is CSEL capable
 
Richie, rt click on MyComputer>select Manage>Disk Management. See if the
drive shows up there. If yes, rt click and assign a drive letter to it. If
no, try moving the drive to the Secondary Ide channel as Master.

If your motherboard supports cable select then just reset the jumpers to
csel & place the drives in the order you wish & this hopefully should
solve your problem

Did you fdisk and format the drive?

It wont show up in My Computer until this is done.

Open Admin tools
Go to Computer Management
Then Disk Management

The drive should show there.

Initialize it and format it from there.
