Win not seeing hd

by mrwreckit . Updated 23 years, 6 months ago

I replaced a hd with a larger one & put XP Pro on it. Fine so far no probs. The original hd was to be used as a slave, leaving Win 98Se on it (don’t ask me, I just do as I am told!!) The bios finds the older hd fine no probs. No version of Windows will open the hd (2K Pro, XP Pro, 98, 2k server…). the jumpers are set ok (I have also tried them different). There is an icon for the hd but Win just says something along the lines that it is not formatted. If the hd is put as the only hd on a pc it boots to 98???!!!
help!!
