On your old 'c' drive see if there is a setting for "master",
some of these drives have a different setting for single drive vs. master.

Also check to see if you have installed the new drive on the second
IDE channel, if so it needs to be set as a master.  And the second IDE
channel enabled in BIOS.

I installed a used Seagate 540MB hard drive as slave, and changed
the setup in the BIOS for the second drive.The computer works fine, but I
can't find the second drive, File Manager still shows only drives "a"
(floppy),
"c" (old drive), and "d" (CD-ROM).Any suggestions, please? Thankyou.
