I know this is an old thread, but I'm having problem accessing disk management. My second hdd shows up in bios and device manager, but not in my computer. I'm assuming I need to partition and assign it a drive letter, however, when I click on disk management I get the following error:
"An Internal error occured. Restart the Disk Management snap-in."

When I click ok, I then get the following error,"Microsoft Management Console has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

I'm stumped and any help would be greatly appreciated... THANKS
