    Im new to windows 2003 server, but i just installed it and im having trouble installing a second or even third hard drive, the computer and bios recognizes it. In windows the device manager recognizes the hard drives but when viewing the drives in my computer it only sees the c: drive. What could possibly causing this problem :)
