Installing Second user HD

[Guy Smith]

I am installing an internal WD ide HD.
I have it set up as slave drive and have changed the pins on the master and
slave.
New hard ware has identified it and installed it.
Device manager lists it and says its working properly.
My computer refuses to list it??!! Any ideas please?

Guy, try setting them up as cable select on both drives. Also, check in
Control Panel>AdminTools>Computer Manage>
Disk Management. If it shows up there see if you can rt click on it and
give it a drive letter.

Did you happen to Partition and/or Format it?
