Does anyone have a work around so that Win 7 recognizes the drive and lets me read/write to it.
In explorer it shows the drive in my case 'F' but I cannot view the drive as Win 7 says that it's not readable and needs to be formatted, which I don't want to do as it contains lots of data.
I have no problem with the drive with WinXP or Linux systems, just WIN 7.
Win 7 install all the drivers for the device and I've even tried updating them but it says they are up to date.
Is the Windows 7 computer a desktop or a laptop?
If you could try pulling the data off (with you other computers) and try formatting it with the windows 7 computer. This drive shouldnt have any issues with windows 7.
