cant see any disks in the disk parameters 1

[mrmovie]

Hi all,
I am going mad. All i am trying to do i create a "physical disk" resource. if i use the GUI to create it there are no available disks in the 'disks' drop down menu. i have tried doing it at the command line with Disk="G:" of Disk="Volume{.... but i get a System Error 87.
i only have one physical disk in my server which i have carved up into different primary partitions and formated with ntfs....

I am tryin this as testing before installing on a box with san disks etc

Local disks are not available in the cluster administrator. You can only cluster shared disks (SAN disks).
