Default 2nd Hard Drive


-----Original Message-----
I've recently got a second hard drive for my desktop and
am running windows millenium edition. Like a previous
poster it is showing in my bios but not when I start
windows up. The advice given was that I had to format and
partition the hard drive and to refer to myintructions
with the hard drive. I do not have the instructions
however so is there any other source I can get the
information from to perform this task?

Cheers

Andrew

You can partition the hard drive with fdisk which is in
the windows folder. You have to use the msdos window and
type in fdisk while in the windows directory.
Be careful not to partition the wrong disk or you will
loose all the data on it. When you have created a
secondary dos partition you can format it with windows
explorer.
