I have this drive and no matter wht i do i cannot access anything i put into
it.It doesnt show in device manager. It does appear in my motherboard boto
screen as being detected,but vista cant see it.Any ideas?
 
Did you format it with Fat32 or with NTFS since it may not be being seen if
it is not formatted with one of the 2.
 
CD\DVD media do not use FAT32 or NTFS file systems, they use CDFS/UDF. Even
if it were NTFS/FAT32, Vista will still recognize and read it.
