    ****Situation Solved - part 2 ****

    Part 1 still open to the floor. I got the top fan spinning g but rearone still proving troublesome.

    Part 2 was indeed the fact that the HDD must beformatted before windows will pick it up.

    Hi all

    I am having a tad of trouble with a recent build.

    1. I have a Cooler Master Storm Scout and I cannot get the top and rear fan going. I did before but I had to take it all apart to rehouse the CPU cooler, I connected everything back as before and nothing.......

    2. I can't seem to get my second HDD to show up. It shows up in the BIOS. I am in Disk Management window and I can see "System Reserved 100MB and beside it 931.41MB as Unallocated.... I do not know what to do with it though....

    I am running Windows 7 32 bit.

    Any Ideas.........

    Thanks very much

    Rgds
    John

    Regarding point 2 - I think you have to format the drive, in order to "allocate" the space as such. Right click it in the disk management window, and format.

    Point 1 Ive no idea really sorry.

    IS the Scout the one with the fan controller ?

    If so,check the connections at the fan controller PCB.If not,try all the fans in all of the different headers on your motherboard.

    About the HDD,if its a new drive you will just need to format it before your computer can see it
