Win7 (+ W10) 2nd partition of USB disc not recognized, no drive letter
Hello,
I hope to find help in this forum.
(I just tried another, German Win7 forum but until now they don't have an idea ...).
I'm using an external USB HDD (Toshiba Stor.E Basics, 500GB) which is divided
into two partitions (with "MiniTool Partition Wizard 9").
I've no problems with all my (old) XP prof. systems.
Conecting the HDD to my Win7 prof notebook (Lenovo W500) as well as
to my Win10 home tablet, only the first partition will be recognised.
Here you see the screenshot.
Using MiniTool Partition Wizard (on the Win7 system), the 2nd partion will be found - but without drive letter.
Trying to assign a drive letter with the Minitool results in a positive message, but then, the same state again is displayed: no drive letter. (Assigning a drive letter with Win7 routine is impossible.)
Here, only just mentioning it, the screenshot of the drives and partitions on the XP system:
Any idea?
Thanks in advance!
