| | Windows recognizes harddrive, cannot read As I posted here: Ubuntu kills comp, grub reset screen only shows I partitioned my external harddrive via ubuntu to run ubuntu. Back on windows, my harddrive isn't read in my computer but it shows in device manager. How can i access this? Additional info: Seagate 500 gb harddrive |

| Vista and Windows7, sometimes Ubuntu and Fedora | I think the problem is the format. The partition/drive must be formatted in NTFS and have a drive letter. The Linux formats will not do. |

| Vista and Windows7, sometimes Ubuntu and Fedora | ext4 is not a format that windows can deal with. If you want to use the drive in windows, you have to reformat it to NTFS which Linux can handle too. |
