2nd hard drive missing after sleep

I have a frustrating issue that HP Chat didn't seem to grasp at all.

 

I have a DV9810us Notebook running Vista SP1. No modifications, either HW or SW.

 

The Notebook has a 2nd drive bay into which I have installed a known good WD 120GB drive

 

Problem:

When the notebook enters sleep and then resumes, the 2nd drive disappears!. I have to reboot the notebook, in order to see the drive again.

 

After searching Google, I have seen a few instances where other people have seen this, but no resolutions offered.

 

 

Anyone here seen this or can offer some help?
