Hello David I thought that would be possible but the drive is not "seen" in "my computer".. I thought a serial ATA drive would show up but do you think I'll have to check for it in CMOS? Regards Fanus

Is there a way to format a second hard drive while windows xp and jaws are running from the primary drive? In other words, if I connect a second drive and boot so that I can use jaws, is there software which I can download to format and partition the new drive or can it be done if I insert the windows CD and let jaws assist me?
