Hi,
Does it show in BIOS information screen? Could you please post the Disk Management picture.

This is the picture you requested

You can right click the D drive and select format it to NTFS file system and see whether it helps.

Will this wipe out all the information on my c drive?

No, you right click within the marked space, it will only format D drive only, it will not delete anything in Disk 1.

Yes, if the D drive used to have data on it, doing a format will leave it empty. There are partition recovery tools you might try first, and often a Quick format will allow you to use unerase tools to get some stuff back. What would be good to know though is why the drive got wiped to a RAW partition. There might be issues with the drive itself...
