Hello. I have very weird situation with my truly friendly configuration. I have added one more Hard Disk drive to the "Device Manager List" while a go, and XPSP3 won't let me to do the usual format trick from device management console, which is logical drive creation and nothing else. Instead of that I can see only dynamic drive option. It works like dynamic drive, but I want to see two hard drives where the other has nothing to do with the dynamic term or anything alike. I think that I was understandable enough. Thanks in advance.

Tried with partition magic? Do that if you didn't, or try with some other partitioning utility, which ever you like. It doesn't matter. But, I am quite sure about the other method. XP CD. Insert the CD, start booting and just do the complete partitioning process from there. From XP setup menu. Than, when you have finished (without format) just press F3 key twice, and pull the CD from drive out. On next logon, click twice on newly created non-dynamic volumes, and answer with yes.
