HDD woes
hiho
just rebuilt my system and now running WinXP. old sys was A - floppy C - HDD 1 - 20GB - windows only really D - HDD 2 - 60GB - for progs - BUT > was 32 GB partition cause of FAT32 / Win98 E - DVD F - CDR but i want full 60GB or at least ( preferably 2x30 GB ). so i copied most stuff from D to C so i could reformat D and set up relevent partiton(s). so i go to install Win XP Recurring error. which was with an issue to do with D drive or GFX card or GoBack ( i know thats a bit genrallised but i disconnected D, took off the GFX drivers and uninstalled GoBAck in one go ). Win XP installation went ok after that. setup after install a - floppy c - HDD1 - @ 20 GB d - dvd e - cdr which is pretty much what i would expect installed Partition Magic 7 ( says XP compatible ) attached my old D drive ( 60 GB w/ 32 GB patrtition ) comp boots fine here is problem - i click my computer - 2nd HDD is not there a - floppy c - HDD1 - @ 20 GB d - dvd e - cdr i can go to control panel > hardware profile etc and it says its working fine, just i cannot view it for some reason. i can run partition magic drive info and it sees it, but if i run partition magic - actual program to format or create partitions, it crashes my computer. so any help is appreciated should i maybe try to format it from startup? is the fact that it was originally 'd' anything to do with it? Help me please |
