| | 2nd VHD not visible on Virtual Machine (Virtual Server 2005 R2) I've created a 2nd VHD and added it to my virtual machine. Everything looks fine in the Administrator Website. The problem is that when I go into my virtual machine, the new virtual disk does not show up in my Window Explorer. Has anyone seen this before? Any ideas how to fix it? Thanks in advance. |

| | 2nd VHD not visible in Virtual Machine (Virtual Server 2005 R2) I have created and setup a 2nd virtual disk via the Administration Website and everything looks fine. The problem is when I try to find the disk in my virtual machine, it does not show up. Has anyone seen the problem before? Anyone have any ideas about what I may be missing? Thanks in advance. |

Thanks in advance. the new drive, and add a drive letter (just like you would with a new physical HD). Right-click My Computer, select Manage, select disk management. -- Cheers, Steve Jain, Virtual Machine MVP http://vpc.essjae.com/ |
