It says it is a Dynamic drive and Healthy but no drive letter.

I dont get the ability to assign a drive letter, not enabled. I an only see
Properties and Help and Convert to Basic Disk.

Would have made it nice to just assign a new drive letter.

Get this, I have another PC with the same type of drive in in it and had to
re-install XP on the PC. The 2nd drive was the Western Digital wd3200jb just
like this one on my Vista machine. It also did not come up after reinstalling
the O/S?

So now 2 machines with identical type of drives and both would not show the
drive after the O/S was installed. Both show the same issue, I can see in
Disk Mgr but can not do anything with them except Convert to Basic.
