Hd Problem

[dokko]

Its probably a simple solution but here goes.

The HD can be seen in BIOS and startup, it can be seen in device manager workiing properly, it can be seen and test in HD tune although stats like capacity & usage are not found but the main problem is it can't be found in 'computer' meaning i cannot use it?

Help!

Original drive 150gb raptor, this is a 250g SATA II (i think) Seagate Barracuda.

Oh am on Vista 64b

Computer Managment > Disk Managment should be a popup otherwise right click and intiialise.

Yeah done, just totally forgot about it not being formatted. Like i said, i knew it would have been something simple.

(I tend to panic first then think later)
