Windows XP with SP2 does not detect my Hard drive

I have an 80G seagate hard drive partitioned into c: and d: with 40 G each. I
have a 1.7G seagate and assigned a drive e:. When I power up my machine, the
bios detects that there are 2 hard drives connected. But when I open up the
Window explorer, I can only see C: and D: My E: drive is not being detected.
I have to either do a 'Add hardware' or in device manager to scan the
hardware before it shows up in my Wondow explorer.

Any reason why? and how to fix it up.

Thanks.

A 1.7Gb harddrive? Really?

Sure.

The smallest HD I have in my collection is 340MB. It still works - even
on a modern motherboard IDE interface.
