    It could help us quite a bit if you can post a screenshot of Windows Disk Management showing how the drive appears in any other working PC and also a screenshot of the exact error message when you try to access it. It would also be of interest to see how Partition Wizard sees it on that PC.

    .

    The only thing that I would advise now is to remove the active flag on the System Reserved partition on the problem external drive.

    Connect your external drive, run Partition Wizard, right click on G: System Reserved>modify> Set inactive >Apply.

    Check whether it makes any difference.

    Please wait to see what Slartybart has to say.

    EDIT: I see that Anshad Edavana is here. So I would request him to look into this and give his ideas.

    Hi new to forum due to this exact problem. What was the result? Did it work? Hate reading posts that suddenly end like this.
