I know same topic as others but just follow along.
I got a second hard drive and hooked it up. It didn't work so I got a buddie to look at it and in 2 min he had it running. I recently reinstalled windows and now have the same problem.
Windows xp home detects my hd under device manager. It says it is running normal. For some reason I cannot access it through explorer nor does it show up on my computer as an active drive.
Yes it has been formated.
Yes it has data on it
Yes the jumpers are connected
It has to be some stupid setting I am missing. Maybe I need to reasign a drive letter or ????? help if u can
