Try to plug it in again.
If it is IDE, maybe it isnt plugged in right

Its raw space. You need to create a partition, change the raw space into ntfs I believe. Try using some sort of partition editing program.

You could always use Norton Ghost, or some other HD image copying program. Takes up loads of space for the image, however.
