| | USB Hard Drive no longer appears in "My Computer" Help please (Sorry if this has already been answered; I'm new) Today at college I tried to continue my work by plugging in my USB hard drive and it simply wouldn't appear in "My Computer". When I tried later on that day it would appear as a "Removable Disk" but I was unable to double click it. The technicians at my college said that I need to format it, but when I tried to create a backup last week it was unsuccessful so it would mean losing all of my college work. Is there a way I can at least access the hard drive to get to the contents? Please help  |

| | Backup files using PartedMagic may be helpful. You will want to do the reverse of that tutorial or get a second external drive to mount to backup to. Download and burn PartedMagic first. |
