My computer will not recognize my maxtor slave hard disk. It is not listed under disk management either. It is enabled in my bios. When I try to detect it in my device manager it says its not properly connected to my computer- "code 45". Well, I've reconnected all my wires 5 times at least, my jumpers are set to slave. My os is windows xp pro. Please help.
