NEW HARD DRIVE
I know exactly what you going through! I had the same problem recently.
First off make sure your new drive is fitted properly and that the BIOS can see it. If you don't know how, have a look at your motherboard manual.
Now boot into windows and go to control pannel> system >hardware >device manager >disk drives, click on the plus sign and you should see your new drive. If not the hardware is not installed properly. shut down and check connections and bios again.
Now you've checked the drive is being recognised you need to partition and format it.
In contol panel select admin tools >computer management and click on disk management. You should see all your drives in the window on the right, including the new one. Right click on the new drive and you'll options to format and partition your new drive.
Hope this helps
