Multiple Hard Drives

[Dave]

Thanks for the help. I have tried connecting them
directly to the IDE as well. No go. I have used the
floppy from maxtor and WD ( I have an ATA from both) as
well as downloaded the drivers too. Still nothing.

Thanks
Dave

Hi, Dave.

What do you see in Disk Management about these drives? Have you initialized
them? See the Help file in Disk Management for details.

Does your BIOS recognize these drives during bootup?
