IDE-1 MASTER C: = WIN 2000 PRO SP4 = NTFS = 72GB DESKSTAR
IDE-1 SLAVE D: = DATA ONLY = NTFS = 30GB SAMSUNG
IDE-2 MASTER E: = WIN XP PRO = NTFS = 40GB MAXTOR
IDE-2 SLAVE F: = WIN 98 UPGRADE EDITION = FAT32 = 31GB FUJITSU

MB=ATHLON XP 1800+ 720MB RAM

BIOS SETTINGS
ALL DRIVES SET TO AUTO DETECT
1ST BOOT DEVICE = FLOPPY
2ND BOOT DEVICE = IDE 0

I earlier booted to IDE-1 Win2000 and all 4 drives are showing in Explorer.
I have just booted to IDE-2 XP. In Windows Explorer I can only see the XP and Win98 drives.
However, still in XP, I have looked in device manager and all 4 drives are listed.

Thanks for looking at the problem.
