Guys
Old setup was 80gb primary master and 200gb primary slave. Slave was
partioned into 3.
Slave runs on same IDE cable as master.
80gb master is getting a bit creaky so I...
Put a new master drive in - 200gb Western Digitial. Installed XP home
from original recovery disc. Usual problem with Win Xp on recognising
138gb of the drive but got through this, got it installed and up and
running.
The problem is although I can see the primary slave in Device Manager
and it says everything is running okay with it...I can't access it, see
any of the drive letters g:, h: etc etc
in explorer. I transferred a whole heap of stuff from my old drive onto
it with the belief I could then transfer back the information on the
newly installed drive.
I have been through lots of information about various similar issues
but I don't have ANY access to this drive.. It doesn't show up in disc
manager although the new drive c:, d: and the CDrom and Dvd rom do..
Help please. This is a family PC and I am about to get lynched.
..Anything else you need to know?
Thankyou
