Hi I have just installed two new identical Maxtor SATAII drives. When installing vista AND in bios I see the two drives. When Vista was installed, I now only see the one drive in My Computer. Please help!

Ye sorry.... Very simple, right click on COMPUTER in the start menu and click manage. Go to disk management I you can see the missing hard drive, right click on the BLUE LINE next to the icon of the drive and click new simple volume. FORMAT (takes a VERY long time) and your chosen lettered volume should appear in My Computer! (VISTA ONLY)
Many Thanks, Joseph Middleton
