Help, I upgraded from windows ME where I had 3 functioning hard drives to XP Home and now only two of the hard drives show up. all of my music is on the third, missing hard drive. I followed the suggestion of going to Disk Management to assign the drive a letter but only two hard drives are listed there and all of the removable drives have letters assigned to them. What happened to my missing drive? What can I do to get it back? If the drive is not showing in the BIOS, what does that mean?

Click to expand...

If the drive is not showing in the BIOS, it is NOT communicating with the
motherboard.. Which means either the controller is bad, the cable is bad,
the drive is misconfigured (master/slave/cable select) or the drive is bad.
