Use the Disk Management tool in XP or Vista. In Vista you have to be logged
into an administrative user account in Vista. Then click Start, type comp
click Computer Management. The Disk Management tool is under Storage in the
left column. You'll have to format the partition to make it visible to the
OS.

Hi,
During Vista intallation I divided my HDD (400GB)to 3 partitions, only for 2
partitions I did format and as a result I doesn't see my third HDD in my
comuter (I see only C drive 78GB and D drive 244 GB), need your help to
recover\find my last part of my HD

If the partition will be used from Vista then it would be better
to let Vista do the formatting.
