hi, i recently put in a sata drive in to replace my ide drive.
i installed vista on my sata and my ide drive still had vista on it. when i tried to format it, it said that windows is unable to format. i went to msconfig and deleted the boot record, i even tried deleting the files from the drive and it said access is denied.
here is a screenshot of my disk managment window

Now disk 0 is my ide drive and i no longer use it. Disk 1 is my main drive. now what i dont get is why my inactive drive is disk 0? what do i have to do to fix this?
