Lee,
go into windows media player and it should find all the devices on yer network, wired and wireless.
I can't tell you exactly how right now.. or ever in that case because the lappy's at the repairers and there are no other windows machines other than that.
Someone else?

well, i think the hd is partitionated. but the other partition was not created hence you dont see it there.
what can you do? get a xp cd and make it boot while restarting, then, as if you were gonna install xp, you will see that there is a partition left(where windows is not installed), you need to create a partition and then restart.
go to my computer and format the new partition.
hope it helps

you should be able to right click them and delete the partition and then re-format it to be able to use in windows,

it seems you have 3 hd's.
- 250gb
- 30gb
- 6gb
the 250bg is not partitionated(so you dont see it), youre using the 30gb one and the 6gb is not partitionated either

I'm all confused now man what do you want or need to do, as tranced said you have 3 hard drives, 2 of which are not formatted, from what i can gather i do have a hangover though you seem to think you using your 250gig hd when you not you using your 30gig hence why you don't see the amount of space you thought you had
