Setting up a second hard drive
Here is an easy one I just do not remember how. I have an 80g segate barrauda with windows and such set up. It is set up as follows:
C: = programs D: = Page files E: = Documents F & G are my dvd burner and dvd rom respectively I just installed another 80 G hard drive. My device manager shows it in the listing . What I need to know is how to format the new drive and will XP automatically reconfigure the drive lables?

Go into Disk Managment in XP and format it from there. Yep, as far as I know, XP should reconfigure the drive labels.

Excellent!!!! I thought I shot myself in the foot. I kept getting a boot error. So I did a repair on XP thought I lost everything. I didn't!!!
 . Thanks for your help.
