use fdisk to partion the drive, then format. also make sure u set up the jumpers correctly, and set it up in bios, detect all drives

What operating system do you currently have that you want to add this second harddrive?

[(>Zero Cool<)]

xp :)

Connect the drive as a slave then boot up Windows and go to:

Start>Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Computer Management>Disk Management.

You will see that you have all the tools to partition and format you drives right there. There are wizards and help to guide you.

Sound nice and straightforward, which is my preferred level :P Thanks a lot for the help somebody1234 :)
