Hi
Please accept my appologies if this is a known and solved issue that I haven't found yet.
I formatted my Western Digital 500GB My Book with Windows 7 RC and copied all my data across my network from my mac's external HDD. I'm sure I formatted it in NTFS and not the new Windows7 FAT32 replacement.
I needed to acces the files at work so brought the My Book into work.
I can't get my work XP laptop to see the partitions on the My Book -- it sees them in Disk Manager as Healthy (Unknown Partition) :-(
My work Vista64 machine sees similar in Disk Manager too.
I tried to find solutions on the web but only found people having problems reading XP formatted on Windows7.
Any help or links to solved similar problem gratefully accepted.
