I added a new HD, it's recognized in setup no problem, I went to "Computer

Not sure but did you mess with the jumpers? Don't. I assume you
plugged it in correctly. Might just as well check the device manager
just to see if it's there correctly.
If it were me, I'd just format it in a dos window if windows gives you
too much trouble.
