I plugged in my mass storage device and it did the find the drivers thing
okay. Everything seems to be going smoothly. When I go to windows explorer,
it doesn't show the drive listed. All I have to tell me that it recognizes
it is the little "Safely Remove Drive" icon is at the bottom right. I've
tried uninstalling and re-installing the driver and that didn't work. How do
I get it to show up in windows explorer so that I can move files to and from
it?
 
You have to partition and format a drive before you can use it. Until you
do, it will not show up in My Computer.

Right click "My Computer". Go to manage - then to disk management.
Partition/format from there.
