    Can't see my Vista partition from Windows 7...


    I know there's a way to enable this, and I don't "need" to be able to see it right this second. But if someone knows how, could you please post it here, or link me to a post/tutorial about it?

    Thank you.

    You probably need to assign a drive letter for it in disk management.

    Hello all.

    There is also this video here at Se7en Forums; that is a good resource to point people to.
