New slave HD

Guest

I have a 60 GB WD HD with a jumper set to master. I just installed a new WD
120 GB HD and set the jumper to slave. Windows XP Home does not recognize the
new 120 GB HD. I can open the device manager and it shows up as working. The
new hard drive is recognized in my mobo BIOS ( ASUS ). Any help is
appreciated. Thank you.

Click Start, right click on My Computer, select Manage. Under Storage
select Disk Management, see if you can find your new disk, if you can right
click and assign a drive letter.
