Not assigning a drive letter to a hard drive.
I am working on my fiance's mom's computer and I am trying to fix her primary hard drive that continuously reboots due to Norton GoBack. I put another drive in with only WinXP installed and nothing else to be able to get to the first drive as a slave. When I put the first drive in as a slave (and jumpered correctly) the computer recognises the drive under bios and disk management, but doesn't assign it a drive letter, so the files are not accessable as you cannot navigate to them in command prompt or through windows. Any idea how to get Windows to assign it a drive letter? Under Disk Management the option to assign/change the drive letter is grayed out and not selectable.
