I have an external hard drive (Maxtor II). I had it up and working, and used
it to back up my c drive prior to using Norton PartitionMagic.
To cut things short, I've repartitioned a few times, didn't like the reults
(everything ran perfectly, my drive just wasn't big enough to do what I
wanted), each time reformatting and reinstalling windows and the device
drivers.
This time, my computer can't "see" the external drive. It is present on
Device Manager and says its is working, but I can't see it on "My Computer"
or windows explorer. I have tried reinstalling the Maxtor software, Windows,
reformatting and repartitioning several times; have tried to install in safe
mode but the installer won't run.
Any hints on how I can get the external drive recognised again?
