How do i make my new drive show up withOUT a floppy?
Hey guys, i just bought a 120 GB IDE WD 7200. I already have a 80 GB WD 7200 in my system, that has XP and is full,and is IDE. I plugged in my new 120 Gig, and my BIOS recognizes it as a Primary Slave. However when i go into Windows, i go to My Computer and i cannot find my new drive with 120 GB. How do i go about making my New 120 GB show up, so i can begin putting files onto it? I do not have a floppy drive, as the floppy connector on my motherboard is broken, so i need another solution. Thanks for your help!
