installed SATA Adaptec controller, and SATA seagate 160 gb drive. Both show up in the device and disk manager but the drive does not show under My Computer and under Explorer. I can partition and format the drive and the OS reports that the drive is healthy. I am trying to use this with the existing 60GB ultra DMA on the MB. All service packs and drivers are up to date. The new drive formats as default NTFS which is fine... I just can't access it from explorer and it does not show up under My Computer Any ideas???
 
i have the same problem but the sata drive shows fine but my existing ide drive are gone and will only show up if i ex take my cd drives out...
