how to access second hard drive

I hate to think I'm dense but I don't know how to access the answered questions, for that matter I don't know how to introduce myself either. (can i really be that dense?)

I have two hard drives installed. My Computer shows it as drives C & F (I also have two CD/DVD and floppy installed. At one time I was able to have my choice of what hard drive I wanted to use.) It was a DOS prompt screen giving me the choice of what one to use, I would use the 'arrow' keys to make that choice. I need to know how to get that screen again so I can make my choice of what hard drive to use.


Thanks Diniks

I think you're talking about the BIOS where you can select which Hard Drive to boot from.

Depending on your system it is usually either DEL or F2 at startup.

Are you trying to boot from one drive instead of the other?
