Hi I have a 350g Toshiba external drive Model # hddr320e03x that my xp machine is not recognizing. My Vista laptop recognizes it just fine. My usb ports on the xp machine are fine because they see my flash drives etc. I've tried every usb port with the Toshiba. I have XP service pack 2. Again, laptop is fine, XP machine cannot see it. Thanks 4 any help.
