Computer powered down last night and when I went into Windows again my second Harddrive isnt showing up in 'computer'. It's a 150gb SATA drive. I checked all connection and theyre fine. I go to computer > manage > disk management > and its showing up but its weird.
It says:
Disk 1:
Unknown
7.46 GB
Unreadable
Black bar over it telling me its unallocated. Now I try right click it and only have 2 options available 'properties' and 'help'.
Please, somebody help me with this. I cant understand whats wrong with this drive and I have been looking on google for over 8 hours now.
Specs:
Windows Vista 64
2gb Ram
AMD dual core
Main HD is 60gb IDE
Slave (problem drive) 160gb SATA
NOTE: I dont care to recover data I just need to get it working again so it shows up. I have no problem reformating it I just need the option to do so.
Here is link to screen shot:
