7-3. When a new drive letter is not assigned(Windows)

When you connect a HDD which is not formatted or does not have partition, a

new drive letter will not be assigned in [My Computer]. You need to format or

create partition on the HDD.

1. When you use Windows Me/98SE, you can format your HDD and create

partition, using the format utility, FRFMTW9X.EXE.

2. When you use Windows XP/2000, you can format your HDD and create

partition, using Disk Management in Windows XP/2000. For more

information, refer to a Windows XP/2000 help file. If a new drive letter will

not be assigned yet or you fail to format the HDD after you have done Disk

Management, you should do Low Level Format, using the format utility,

FRFMTW2K.EXE.

Regarding format utility, refer to Chapter 6.
