WD 10k

Well I got a wd 36gig 10k harddrive yesterday and I hooked it up in my case and what not. I want to use the 10k for my games and my other 7200 for just other stuff. I was told to put my OS on the 7200 and keep that seperate from the games. Well getting to the point I reformated and the 10k was not found. I was told to save some drivers to a floppy and then restart w/ the restore cd in and when it got to the blue screen hit f6 and what not. So I did all that and it installed it, but the raptor is still not being found. Hopefully I just did something really stupid, or maybe I was linked the wrong drivers idk.

Any help would be great.
 
Well if none of you have a slight idea maybe you could lead me through how you installed yours?
Or better yet if you have a link to the instalation process. I have found some, but not what I was looking for.

Thanks, Bob.
 
So you're doing everything from the 7200 drive (ie OS)? Have you formatted the raptor drive? Can you see it in disk managerment?
 
is it a recent mobo? or up to date bios? u might need to set up SATA in bios setup.

sata wont work properly if you had ur ide bootdrive in primary master.
