    Dear hassan,
     
    Do you have 2 hard disk? becues you saied taht your H.D.D is 40 Gb(MAXTOR) and another drive 20Gb !!
    Go to Bios setup ( When your system boots up, Press F2) and see that does your system detactes new hard drive or not?
     
    Regard,

    Edit your post and remove that "Motherboard name" It looks like your Service Tag and that is not allowed on the forums.
