Hi all,

Just upgraded to Win-7-Utimate 32bit from Vista 32bit, on 2 machines the 1st being a Toshiba L300, the 2nd being another Acer 6530G that i have.

Both upgrades seem fine and all is working on both machines except, that my Acer only shows C:\ drive as being present and only show 111GB available from an original 250GB? [where has partition D:\ gone?]
the toshiba is fine! shows both drives!

Have attached 2 screen grabs.

Did you look in Disk Management and see if there is an unnamed disk? Sometimes you only need to assign a name to the unknown drive there.
