I've cruised through a bunch of boards and read dozens of posts, but still nothing.
I cannot figure out how to format my brand new Western Digital 80 gig HDD. Xp Pro is reconizing it in the "device manager" but from what i've been told/read there should be the option to "format" if i right click on the drive... there isn't (it isn't giving my the option for the 1st drive either). I've tried to set it up in the BIOS and think i was sucessfull (reconized old HDD as Master and new HDD as Slave). But it reads the new HDD as 33gig, its an 80 gig. The motherboard is brand new (Elite Group K7AMA).
I'm at a loss any help you guys could give would be great.
