I am trying to dual boot Leopard with my Windows 7. I got to the installation screen perfectly fine, but in Disk Utility, I am not seeing my hard drive or any partitions.

 

I have a Samsung 160 GB ATA hard drive , with IDE interface.

 

Help please?

 

Edit: Specs on my laptop

Motherboard: Quanta 30CF

Chipset: NVIDIA nForce 560

Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 7150M/nForce 630M

Wireless: Broadcom 802.11g Network Adapter

NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller

Sound: Conexant High Definition SmartAudio HD2

Chances are the problem is with support for the chipset that provides the IDE interface on your motherboard. Research that or post details for more advice. The brand and size of the hard disk itself is likely to be irrelevant.
