This post is for a friend, not myself. Heres the problem.
He got a second hard drive to use as a data dump, his first hard drive is petitioned. He transfered all his music games etc to the new harddrive, the formatted the first hard drive so he could make it non partitioned and reinstall windows. Now that he reinstalled windows, its showing his data dump hard drive as only having the space left that his data files didnt use, but it isnt showing his files, its basically showing a blank hard drive and the space he took up and the files he sent are looking like there not even on it.
How do you make it show up as a normal drive ready to go without having to formatt it etc??
Thanks for the help in advance, hes really freaking out and posting on some tech support forum where I think they have more good intentions then they do actual knowledge.
