WD20eurs formatting

I just received a new drive it is a 2TB and I want to format it for windows 7 64. It sees the drive in the my computer but it is not formatted. I tried to format it in windows 7 and it failed. All help would be great. Thanks in advance.

I posted this and would like some help if you can thanks in advance

I need to make a correction the drive is 3tb not 2tb. I am using windows 7 64 bit.

Hello, for you to access the full 3TB capacity, you need to use the GPT format. Check the link below for the steps.
