I have a problem with one of my hard drives not showing up... I looked in bios and it detects it and shows every thing is normal with it. I go to my computer and it isnt there.. I go to device manager and go to disck drives and it is listed and in properties it says it is enabled and is working correctly. I go to volumes and populate and then it tells me that type is dynamic and that status is forgien. It is set up as NTFS just as my other one is. My other hard drive is working fine. type=basic, status=online. Can anyone help.. Im thinking I have to change it from a dynamic to basic hard drive but I am not sure how.
 
Never mind.... I figured it out... now I feel like an idiot. Xp home doesnt support dynamic disc like xp pro. I guess I never shouldve went back to xp home cause now I must convert back to basic disc and loose all my backed up files off of xp pro....Thanks anyway
