Hi I just installed winxp on my computer and the secondary hard drive is not listed in 'My Computer'. I know that I can see it in 'Administrative tools' but can't work out how to make it accessible. I am just using the secondary drive for storage. How do I make it so? "The meaning of life is to be happy and useful" Tenzin Gyatso the 14th Dalai Lama

By Administrative Tools, do you mean Disk Management? You'll have to format the drive and assign a drive letter to it in order for My Computer to display it. "So won’t you give this man his wings What a shame To have to beg you to see We’re not all the same What a shame" - Shinedown

Yep Administrative tools>Computer management>disk management. Ok how do I format the drive using disk management and assign a drive letter. I have only ever used this app once before and have never looked deep into it before. I am clicking here and there but I do not understand the lingo.

Right click on the drive in Disk Management and select format. Then, when it's done, right-click again and assign a drive letter. "So won’t you give this man his wings What a shame To have to beg you to see We’re not all the same What a shame" - Shinedown

Is there currently data on the drive you want to keep?

No it has linux on it at the moment and nothing else that I need. "The meaning of life is to be happy and useful" Tenzin Gyatso the 14th Dalai Lama

I can't see format? Is it 'delete partition'? From there what? "The meaning of life is to be happy and useful" Tenzin Gyatso the 14th Dalai Lama
