Hardware Issues, Need Help ASAP!
 

:helpme

Just got a new computer and took a 40 gig hard drive out of my old computer and put it in my new one...to copy my files over from my old computer to this one.

Installed Windows XP on my new 200GB hard drive, no problems there.

However, I can't see my old hard drive under Windows Explorer, although it shows up in my device manager, my bios, etc.

Any ideas on how I can get the old one to display, so I can copy my files over?

Thanks

hmmmmm

you might need to make sure its assigned a right drive letter somewhere in administrative tools / disk manager
and make sure if you got tweakui its allowed to show that disk name

I had a problem b4 where it showed up but wasn';t accessable.. turns out it was the permissions right click on the disk, sharing and security and set ownershiup to admnistrator or administrators somehow I can't explain exactly but this should put you on right track
