Thanks for listing everything.. I did everything i got two files from the WD site and loaded them at F6 prompt Also i had the nVida Raid driver form the cd and put on a floppy and installed that. I went ahead and had windows install even though i knew it wasn't going to be a RAID drive. I was hoping after windows installs it will see this drive. But it didn't. I got the WD windows utility and ran that and it said there was no other drive except my OS install one. My bios still shows no sata disks. Master or otherwise. Not even the one that has the os on it. Do you think this drive is dead? Seems something should show in the bios. I should never had started this.

Oh i guess having raid enabled in bios may be preventing my installed os from showing. I did try plugging in the dead drive to the port where the good one was. And it didn't show there either. Tomorrow morning i will give it another go but do you think i should do a non-raid install?
