i took a hard drive from a toshiba laptop and put it in an external case. well i've got 10gigs of music on the hard drive, and probably 2-3 worth of pictures. i had it plugged into my gf's laptop *runs vista* and it worked like a charm, but my mom wanted some of my snes roms so i hooked it up to her XP *first time i've hooked it up to a comp running XP* and it read as if the hard drive was empty, or it needed to have the drivers installed. i hook it back up to my gf's comp *running vista* and get the same type of ordeal, empty drive or appearing as if no drivers are installed......sooo im looking for some help, perhaps you've had this before, or you are a comp guru and know what to do. ALSO i did do the whole right click, unplug safely procedure. the external case is a sun-something i wanna say *im at work; the case is at home* thanks ! :-D
