Issue with a Foreign disk- HELP

I recently reformated my C drive from XP Pro to XP Home.
With XP Pro, both of my disks were working and
accessible. Now under XP Home, my second disk (D) is
Foreign. Is there a way to make it usable by XP Home?

Thx,
Christopher

Unfortunately, this link has nothing to do with my issue.
Because my second drive is Foreign, I can't see it in
Explorer only in Computer Management - Disk Management as
Foreign. Any other ideas?

Try this link instead
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/reskit/en-us/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/reskit/en-us/prkb_cnc_klvo.asp

You just need to Import it through Disk Management.
