Windows 7: New sata secondary hardrive not showing up in Windows

It seemed at the time you ignored the advice without asking a single question to get it done correctly. To the contrary you could have asked as many questions as needed and we would have answered every one without fault.

I realize now I might have been mistaken about this. I'm sorry if I was crabby with you but it is discouraging to type out steps complete with multiple links and screenshots and then have a reply that doesn't seem to acknowledge them.

Please feel free to come back any time you need help. We all have our good and bad days.

You did very well finding out the cable was bad!

Wow man. Greg is one of the most giving people on here. And understand, he does this for free. Please continue to post in the forums. Do not be deterred or offended. His instructions are always clear and concise. In the future, read them until you understand them. He understands(as well as others who give of themselves here) that there are people who lack any understanding of pcs or technology for that matter.

Bill, I second what Greg said since I was a bit rough on you too. My apologies. We are around here most of the time and sometimes it is a bit frustrating if we get little feedback from the person you are trying to help.
