so you can only boot through a xp cd, does that mean you are seeing the drives at the "select a partition stage"

does the computer boot up

what is telling you the drives work

what is telling you they don't

what drives are they

My Drives are working fine and also there s no prob in boot up.
Everythin is fine.
But when i get into Disk Management Settings thru my Administrative tools.
Not even a single drive is detected there. Hope u understood wat i meant ! (Partitions) :(
(i'm talking abt partitions c: , d: , e:) :??:

so your computer works fine

but when you go to "computer management' and click on 'disk management" the drives don't show up

do you see the drives in my computer

how many physical hard drives do you have and what partitions are supposed to be on each

k physical drives and partitions are different things, i only say that cause you've mentioned both

I've never seen drives show in my computer and not disk management what are you trying to do anyway
