Greetings--
Have you partitioned and formatted your new drive? Perhaps using the Disk Management console (I can't remember the name or extension to execute this from the "Run" dialog)?
HTH.

Subject: [PCBUILD] New External Hard Drive
I can't get my computer to recognize my new Hard Drive in My Computer.
I have a Compaq Presario running Win 7.
It does not show up in My Computer, but it is listed under Disk drives in Device Manager.
Any suggestions appreciated. I need to backup my present HD.
