My Toshiba external HDD isn't being recognized by my desktop (windows seven) after I formatted it
I tried formatting it back to the way it was when it was recognized (the one with the 4gb file limit) but it still won't be recognized
Works without any problems on my laptop though (windows vista)
Some form of driver issue or something?
Any thoughts?
