Are you using a RAID card or anything like that? If you are a lot of them need drivers you inject during the installation process or the media. If not something about how the drive was formatted is throwing Windows off.
If the computer does not have a SoftRAID or RAID card installed/enabled, you may need to erase the drive to the point it is factory blank (RAW) to fix this. This guide covers the process using Parted Magic but any tool with ATA secure erase support will also work: [guide|106073]

DBAN also works but it takes hours. That said if you just need to get the drive back to a state it is RAW formatted a quick DBAN erase will do the same job for free: https://dban.org/ - [https://github.com/nadenislamarre/shredos|ShredOS|new_window=true] is similar, but for spinning drives DBAN in its final form will still work.
