Unable to access portable hard disk

hanees, on Thursday May 15, 2008 12:09:10 PM
Hello,


Have connected a portable disk, ISODRIVE 100 VIA USB to my system. Previously I am able to locate and access the drive when I click My Computer. But now, unable to view the drive
from My Computer and under Disk Management, it shows that the disk is unallocated. Please help as I have lots of
data on the drive.


Thank you.
Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 6.0

Hai


Try the drive on another system. XP seems to lose drives occasionally. I suspect it accidently corrupts the Master Boot Record occasionally when it encounters read errors.
