My D:\ drive has disappeared

First of all, I'm running ME and I have a 30 Gb Maxtor drive. Basically I had some problems with my D:\ drive and I decided to just run FDISK, delete the partition, and recreate. I created an extended DOS partition, then the logical drive (D:) and formatted the entire ~25Gb FAT32. I then booted into ME, went into explorer and guess what? No D:\ drive. I don't understand this. When I go back into FDISK it says that I have a logical drive D:\ in the extended partition and it is FAT32. Why won't ME see it? I have removed and recreated the partition several times to no avail. Please, does anyone have any ideas?
