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.

two ways i know:
1. hard drives don't come with them

and

2. in ur screenshot it shows volumes: then nothing there...meaning there are no partitions. ;)
