Vista won't use 2nd IDE drive

Old System:

a. 80 GB - Win XP SP2
b. 160 GB (IDE) - Data files

New System:

a. 160 GB - Vista Home Premium
b. 160 GB (IDE) - Data files

After swapping the a. drives and putting Vista on the new one, Vista sees
the b. drive in disk managment but can't bring it online or assign a drive
letter to make is usable.

What would causethis and how can it be fixed? The 160 (b.) drive has 100 GB
of data on it and can't be reformatted.

Help!
