Hi,

I installed a new 120GB hard drive, installed win xp home with sp2 on
it. I had made three partitionas on the hard drive, each of 40 GB. NOw I
can see only 2 partitions, the third partition is gone, not visible in
the windows file structure. What should I do? I will appreciate any help.

Is it listed there as unformatted or perhaps just not given a letter? If so
then you will need to assign it a letter or format it in order for it to be
seen.
