still the same? uninstall the drivers for the discs that dont show turn off pc unplug them replug them and reboot and see if windows installs the drivers make sure you are connected to the internethardware changes might not have been detectedtry this windows fixHardware devices are not working or are not detected in Windows
if you right click on the drives in disk management what options does windows give you? i think you can allocate a drive without formating it
have you checked the bios for the drives in there?
No hard drives show up:
Make sure both of the drives aren't set for the same setting (master or slave).
Verify the drive is enabled in system BIOS. If not, select the auto-detect option.
sorry i mean in the box in the drives in the pic right click

Install Hard Drive - A guide to installing a IDE hard drive have a read in this web site i have to get some sleep its gone 12 here but i will be back in the morning ok
not much...
thanks for the efforts till now.
what are the size of the drives are they the size as windows is showing?
i would try and boot into a linux live distro like ubuntu to see if there is any data on the drives
you dont have to install it you boot it LIVE you download the iso image burn it to a cd/dvd or thumb drive using
the website of ubuntu explains it very well :)
