windows not seeing hard drive

Postby djdoublebeat » Wed Jan 21, 2004 1:18 pm

i recently bought a new computer and wanted to use my old hard disk as a slave drive. i connected the hard drive from my old computer to my new computer but it is not read when on windows.

on startup it says that there is a slave hard disk but when i open my computer in windows it is knowere to be seen.

i was told i would have to format the hard disk but it holds a lot of important infomation. i was also told it might be physically damage by static or something.

any help would be great, i just dont want to have to format it.

Cheers!
