can't initialize or format G-RAID 500

Hello. I bought a G-RAID 500 today and I got stuck when I got to step 3 on the installation Guide. I clicked on "disk management" and the "initialize and convert disk wizard" did not pop up like it says it would. So, I can't figure out how to initialize it. It also won't let me format the drive.

The serial number does not fall between the numbers listed on G-Tech's site under the update firmware/drivers section for service pack 2. I guess that was a problem that they fixed on the newer drives so I don't need to download that fix...???

Under disk management it says "healthy" and "active" but when I click on it, it says to format the drive, but then it says windows was not able to complete the format when I try to format the drive.

Help is appreciated as always!
