Damnit! I know how to do it just cant remember. Being sleep deprived sucks. :lol: It has something to do with formatting it or something to the likes of that.

Yeah Formatt it
Go to Control Panel> Administrative tools> Computer Managment> Disk Managment.
Then right click on the disk then click format.

ya was just gonna ay u need a partition.
