570188 2007-07-19 05:27:00 Is SP1 or 2 installed on it?

Is this laptop connected to power now? Not by battery?

Might make a diff.

I would tripple check Disk management first.

Well yes, windows may actually already know about it but you cant see it as it hasnt been formatting and had a drive letter associated to it......good point...
