Hey, I just moved my 80gb HD from my old computer where
it was also a slave and worked fine. I put it in my new
computer and it finds it in the device manager but not on
My Computer. I've checked the pins, BIOS, and cables at
least 100 times with no answer. I also called Western
Digital and they told me to call Microsoft which I've
found is quite hard to do. How can I make my drive show
up without formating the drive. Please help! Thanks
Zach
 
Assign it a drive letter.

Right click on My Computer, select Manage. On the following screen, select
Disk Management. It should now show up on the right hand side of the screen
from where you can assign it a drive letter.
 
I forgot to mention that I've tried that as well. When I
right click on the drive, assign drive letter is gray.
Thanks for your help. Zach
