Frequently when I start my Window XP pro; I will not see my external H
drive listed in My Computer.
It is a USB 250G drive.
However, I can save to it, and open files from it if I'm using an
application like Word or Adobe Reader.
Also I keep my mail folder on it, and I can use that without fail.
I always start the drive after Windows has started and settled down.
I always turn off the drive after Windows has shut down and I've
powered off the PC.
This is because often, if I use the icon in the task manager which
allows safe removal of a USB device, I'll try many many times, and it
will never say it's OK.
I've tried it with all applications shut down or some running, it
doesn't matter.
I'd just like to see the H; in my computer so I can use Wex to look
through the drives contents.
thanks
