Is the "Manage" in control panel?
And why does it need to be formatted if its brand new.
Right now, i have it hooked up to the secondary port.
Not doing anything....just pretty much sittin there as im talking to you now.
Oh, just to let you guys now, when i first tryed to use it, i tried putting on XP, it went through the setup, i put in alll the coreect serial numbers and shit. Then it rebooted like it said it was going to then it said it couldnt detect it. I didnt have my other hardrive hooked up only the new one.
Hmmm.....this is pissing me off lol i dont know how to create a partition table....i shoulda just got the packy at teh computer store to do it for me....too late now i guess.

ffs didnt you read what i posted? you dont just have to format it you need to create a partition, without a partition windows doesn't even think there is a hdd there.
it doesn't matter if it brand new, it leterally has nothing on it, it needs a partition table for windows to detect it.
