Win7 doesn't recognize SSD

[SphincterBoy]

I already have one SSD installed with a HDD. I've added a new Samsung 830, which BIOS recognizes, but Win 7 does not. What do I need to do to remedy this?

Have you formatted it from disk management yet?

 

[SphincterBoy]

No, do I do that from within BIOS?

from inside Windows
Control Panel
Administrative Tools
Computer Management
Go down to Disks, select the disk in question, create the partition and format

Perfect, thanks!
