| | Re: Vista doesnt show slave drive I'm sure that you have checked the jumpers already. Is it a new drive? Have you assigned a drive letter in DM?

| | Re: Vista doesnt show slave drive Hi, Does it show in disk manager? Is it already partitioned? Run diskmgmt.msc and check that the drive shows here. Once you've created volumes with this tool, they will show in Windows Explorer. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "profution" <campbellivan@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:B3302F50-BA83-4D17-91FF-6128B0738E0C@xxxxxx Quote: > IQON new machine Core TM 2 Duo 3 MHz > > > > Problem: vista premium doesn't show Slave drive in explorer > > Device manager sees master and slave? > > Any ideas please > > a..
