When i install win xp it only showed one of my hard
drives on my computer. However when i boot up my comput
it recoginzes both hard drives. Also when i right click
on my computer and go to properites and hardware it shows
my second hardrive. i was wondering how do i get to acess
or use this hard drive if it does not show up on my
computer. thnak you.

Hi, Kenneth.

What does it show in Disk Management? To get there, at the Run prompt,
type: diskmgmt.msc

Among other things, you will need to create at least one partition on your
HD, assign each partition a "drive" letter, and format it.

If you need to post back, be sure to tell us more about your HDs. IDE?
SCSI? RAID? External? 20 GB? 200 GB?
