USB/FIREWIRE HARDDRIVE

[Guest]

My Maxtor Onetouch II 200 GB seems to be loocked and is not shown as a
harddrive in Windows Explorer.

When I`m in My Computer the harddrive is shown as "Maxtor Loocked drives" as
a systemfolder under Other. Under Harddrives, it is only my C: that is shown.

When I righ-click the systemfolder I get 2 options; unlock drive and make
shortcut.
Nothing happens whatever I choose to do.


Does anyone know how to unloock the drive?

1) It's spelt 'locked'.

2) RTFM or contact Maxtor.
