fdisk shows that there is only ONE hard drive detectable, with a size of 200GB (fdisk is never wrong). So if your brother really does have two hard drives in that computer then:

1) the BIOS setup is incorrect
2) the cables to the drive have become disconnected
3) the slave/master jumpers on the drives are set incorrectly, or
4) the second hard drive is dead.
