| Windows doesnt find my liteon.. hey.. i'm on a soltek75DRV4 266 with latest firmware i got a seagate iv 60gb, ibm 120gxp 80GB and a brand new maxtor 160gb. i also have a liteon2410b.

| Try deleting the primary channel or the whole IDE controller in device manager and rebooting.....sounds strange that BIOS finds and Windows does not.

| I would do as Bad Religion suggested , if still not there restart in safe mode and look for any instances of the drive in device manager, remove any that are there (and any old drives ) and reboot. |
