Okay so, today I noticed that one of my disk drives is missing. I used to have TWO one said hp recovery and the other hp pavilion, and now there's only one!Hp recovery.

Recently I reinstalled my computer using recovery cd's I bought from http://www.digitalmedia-labs.com/
My computer is a Hp pavilion 725n, running on windows xp home service pack 2! any help will be appreciatedHow are you viewing your availible hard drives? Using Windows, BIOS or the software from digital media?i guess windows since the software reinstalled windows. once in windows i just go in my computer and under hard disk drive, only one SHOWS up, hp recovery. it used to have two under the hard disk drive.Right click My Computer ...select Manage...then Disk Management....
Does it show up there ? ?
If so right click it and select Properties....report back.

PS. You didn't mention if the BIOS is seeing it or what is on this drive...WENT to disk managment it didnt show up there. As for bios i dont know how to check that. i tried accessing bios thru f2 and delete but i cant, i can access bios setup thoughIt will be LISTED in the BIOS setup...
WARNING: Do NOT make any changes when you're in there or you may wind up with an un-bootable machine...while there, what am i looking for?
