    Default Big HDD but no F or G ?

    Hey guys,

    Got myself a Maxtor 300gb hdd stuck it in, firstly as a slave (box didn't like that) then as a master... Stuck slayers 2.5 on to do it's business formatted and selected the c: drive for installation... So far so good.

    Turn the machine back on after restart, none of the programs are installed, F/G are showing 0 storage. Strange? Any idea's on what i should do.

    I currently have Xecuter 4979 (I think) the hdd is set to Master.

    I've now tried to install directly to the F: drive using slayers, but it dosen't do it... instead it writes to the C: and when i boot up i just get the ms dash... humm weird... i will try and change the jumper and see what happens with that... maybe cable select will make a diff.... :nowords:

    should be cable select on the HD i think, you may have to use the seperate format options in slayers to format each partition seperatly

    you may have the wrong version of the x2 bios aswell, theres 2 i think, one for the g partiton and one not
