SSD and HDD help

Flaboss

I just installed Windows 7 on my SSD but my HDD doesn't come up in "My Computer". Did I not do something in the BIOS. Thanks in advance.

Make sure you format and partition the drive in the disk manager so you can properly use it with Windows.

HDD probobly crapped itself outta jealousy now that SSD is the main man and let itself be slaved by crazy kittens from linuscattips :)

 

All kidding aside, you just need to create a new partrition (you probobly deleted partritions during installation) and you're good to go :)
