Firewire (1394) or USB?

Had this happen once on a friends computer.  He purchased a Maxtor external HDD and it didn't show up in My Computer.  Check out http://maxtor.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/maxtor.cfg/php/enduser/std_alp.php?p_lva=&p_li=&p_page=1&p_cv=&p_pv=1.3%3B2.u0&p_prods=3%2C0&p_cats=&p_hidden_prods=&prod_lvl1=3&prod_lvl2=0&p_search_text=&p_new_search=1&p_search_type=answers.search_nl

or if the link fails, go to http://www.maxtor.com and check out the knowledge base for external HDDs.  Alternatively, do a search on Microsofts web site on connecting external HDD.  Good luck.

Yours,

Don Pedro

PS!  I assume that you've followed the installation instructions to the letter, otherwise that may be the cause.
