Recognizing 2nd hard drive issues after reinstalling Windows 7

[puckishwriter]

I just did a complete wipe of a pc that had two drives on it (using DBAN). The wipe went fine and reinstalling Windows 7 went fine, but the second drive isn't showing up in the directory. How do I get Windows to recognize it again?

Have you checked the disk manager?
I don't know DBAN, but if you did a "complete wipe" it may very well have erased all partitions, so you have to create new ones.

Thanks for the advice. Apparently, that's pretty much what happened. I found this article that walked me through using Disk Manager.
