I am also having trouble with Xp recognizing my acomdata external hard drive. ive gotten it to work on other computers, but not mine. ive tried all sorts of things but could not get xp to load drivers and recognize the device

I am also having the same problem. Updated from Win 2000 to XP Pro and now my USB external drives don't show up. I have a Lacie and 2 buslinks. All the data shows up if I use a trial of a recovery program but the drive doesn't show up under My Computer. Any help would be deeply appreciated. Thought I was safe with 3 backups.
