Windows will not recognize this drive. from what i can see there is no setting in the bios?? i thought about uplugging the 200GB HD in case i didnt have enough power?? any suggestions? Thanks!

99% sure it's a Maxtor 250 GB SATA. just remembered i got it in a trade, so there is a very slight possibility, but assuming it's not SATA2. anything to do with Maxtor drivers??

| Why not have a quick look at the drive to see if it has the speed limiting jumpers on the back of it?
