hi guys
i took a 80g seagate harddrive out of a different computer
and connected it to this one. im running win xp with NTFS
from a maxtor HD on this pc. The seagate harddrive is
formatted in FAT32.
-The newly connected drive now gets auto-detected and gets
assigned a drive letter etc, but it's file system, for some
reason is detected as being RAW. So whenever i try to get
into it, windows asks me if i want to format the drive
again. I've switched back and forth, and i know for sure
that the drive isnt corrupted as it still works fine on the
other pc.
-Any ideas how i can get XP to detect this drive's file
system as FAT32???
