Troubleshooting

Problem
Drive and adapter show properly in Device Manager, but no drive letter is available in My
Computer or Windows Explorer.
Solution
This is a normal occurrence with a new drive, or with a drive that contains an existing partition
that Windows does not understand.
Using a new drive with Windows 2000/XP/Vista/Windows 7
You can partition and format the drive via USB using the Logical Disk Manager utility. Click
Start, then Run. (Vista/Windows 7 users click Start and use the search box). Type diskmgmt.msc
, and click Ok. This will start the utility. The USB drive should be visible in the bottom pane. Use
Windows help for assistance with using Logical Disk Manager. Once you have partitioned and
formatted the drive, Windows will assign it a drive letter and it is ready to use.
