and installed it, I already have 40geg with the OS. If I
go in my computer the new hard drive doesn't show. What
do I have to do....



Please help
 
Hello

Make sure that you have the new drive jumpered
correctly, also you need to foramt the drive

I just recently had this problem. What I discovered is
that many motherboards will not recognize higher capacity
drives. However, this doesn't necessarily mean you have to
toss out your old board...

Go to the motherboard manufacturer's website and see if
they have any solutions for you there. I was able to
download a small file that allowed me to update the system
BIOS (the embedded pseudo-operating system for the
motherboard).

Good luck!
 
there is a possiblity that thetr hard drive which u r
trying to install the system is not supporting that.try a
l80gb hard drive and see if the problem exists.
