Windows ME Not seeing Slave Hard Drive

by acollins1973 . Updated 23 years, 8 months ago

I have a 4 gig seagate that I run my OS off of. I also have 2 30 gig Hard Drives (western digital caviar and a quantum fireball). Both drives are detected in BIOS (sectors, size, etc.) Yet nither show up in Windows ME under “My Computer”.
I havechecked the IDE cables, I have tried various Jumper configurations. I have tried detecting new hardware, etc. BOTH drives worked till approx. 2 months ago as slaves, and were seen under this same OS and on this same machine. I know I have been running the Windows UPDate program. Has Microsoft done something?? I have tried reloading the OS, the OS even scans the drives and finds no errors on them before it loads to the Seagate. I am just at my wits end…HELP!!!!!!!
