    I've installed a new harddrive but I can't see it in My Computer. It is visible in BIOS and Device Manager. It is not formated as many of my friends say I have to do. But HOW? In Disk Manager there is no way to format the drive (what I can see)! I'm running Windows 2000 Server Rickard Andersson Here is my card, contact me later!

      You may have to partition the drive first. Right-click on the drive in the bottom pane in the Disk Management applet, and select 'Create Partition' (I think thats what the option is, I don't have an blank drive handy)

            You don't have the permissions set properly to allow public access - we can't see the screenshot.:(

                Yup, I clicked enter as instructed. You can see it because you have an account on the server - I don't. Make sure the file has IUSR_YOURMACHINE in its list of authorized users, and that the folder is enabled for websharing.

Then I see Anonymous access is marked and that account for anonymous access is IUSR_MALIN (my computer name is Malin). So,, why doesn't it work? I have an exe in the dir also, http://duden.mine.nu/vncviewer.exe which I can download without any login. Rickard Andersson Here is my card, contact me later!

                    Ok, I wasn't able to get the screenshot either, but recently installed few drives on my Win2k machine and have a fair idea of the steps. Go to Start and Run --> compmgmt.msc and OK. Go to Disk Management -> Right click on the SHADED area and go to Create Partiton. Then you should see the drive on the Explorer, just format it and that should do. :) Regards, Venet. Donec eris felix, multos numerabis amicos.
