Partition invisible in VISTA

I hav 3 hdd connected in my pc(80 + 40 + 40GB). C: D: E: F: partitions on 80 GB hd. G: on first 40GB hd and H: on the other. i have xp on C: and vista on D: drive. The problem is H: is visible(and hence accessible) in xp but since a few days it is not visible in vista. However H: shows up in the disk management in vista. It simply shows up as dynamic disk and online.

Again goto Disk management and right-click on where u read "Dynamic and online" and select "Convert to basic disk" (or something like that option).

When i right click on dat drive, there r 3 options:
New Spanned Volume
New Striped Volume
Help

The first 2 r greyed out.

Ok i don't kno how but the invisible drive has suddenly started showing up in vista

. What i only did was i checked the drive for errors usin tuneup disk doctor and rebooted in vista. Dats it!!!. Thanx

vishal and others who hav been scratching their heads for solving my problem.

Good to see ur problem solved.
