I have the following problem in Xp windows.
I have 2 hard disks and untill now they were workig fine.
Suddenly, eventhough BIOS recognize both hard disks, the
windows recognize only the master and not the slave.
What should I do? Does anyone know?
 
That is weird. Perhaps you could try rescanning the system for the drive.
Go to Control Panel, System, Hardware, Device Manager. Click on your
computer name, then click Action and Scan for Hardware Changes.
 
The problem is that Device Manager recognizes both hds,
says the devices work o.k., but the windows don't recognize
the second hd.
