I have a known good external usb drive formatted NTFS with data on it. I can access it fine through any number of computers in XP, Vista, 7, and 8 except for one particular XP computer.
I went through the trouble of copying the data off temporarily, and re-formatting the drive, and then putting the data back......but the damned computer still only sees it as a RAW filesystem, when it's fine on all the other systems.
I also notice it's not listing it as a removable drive in My Computer and disk management, but the safely remove hardware eject taskbar icon does.
Any ideas?
