Hi,

I have 2 hard drives of 80 gb each(1 Sata HDD and 1 IDE HDD).Recently i used Partition magic to merge 2 partitions.I did it.But after that i was unable to view my partitions in that drive.WindowsXP is detecting the drive.But cannot view those partitions.Please help me out.

Thank you.

for tht.
go to administrative tools in "control panel".
the goto disc management..
it will show u all physical drives..
may be ur drive not formatted or so..
then make partition and format it
or
format it if partition is already there...
