Hello,
Thank You for Helping,
I had resolved the two HDD issue, the solution was to connect both HDD as master on two-different IDE cables, it worked.
NOW, i am getting the error 'RPC server not available' while trying to launch "diskmgmt.msc" in XP SP2, pls. help, both the RPC services are running.
