Well here goes....
I picked up a Hitachi Deskstar 400GB Sata drive, and for the life of me I cannot get it formatted.
It is recognized by my BIOS and by Windows in the Device Manager.
But it is does not show up in My Computer or Explorer. I have tried it on another computer which is also running XP. Exact same problem. Windows recognizes the device but does not allow me to access or format it.
Does anyone have any idea's how I could get around this little problem.
Thanks,
Andrew
