Not sure about this, but did you try getting access through Disk Management? Heres what you can try:
1) right click on the my computer icon located in the desktop(or start panel)
2) click 'manage'
3) Computer management will open up
4) Keep looking down on your left until you see the words 'Disk Management', and click it.
5) on your right you will see a list of disks you currently have installed. Directly below that, you will see Disk 0, Disk 1, etc.
6) Right click on the hard drive that resembles yours and try formatting it from there.
In most instances hard drives not detectable in device manager, do show up in Disk Management. However it may require some partitioning/formatting for it to be recognizable. See if that helps.
