Hey all,

I recently upgraded from win 2k pro to win 2003 enterprise and now it wont read my external hd. I have a wd 200 gig (set to cs) in a coolmax external drive. It worked when I had win 2k. When I plug it it, it says generic volume. I have a lot of stuff on it already so I dont want to partition and reformat it :(. I tried installing the newest usb driver via 2.58 but still wont work. All my other usb devices work though, SanDisk 512mb flash, mouse, keyboard, etc... its just the harddrive thats not showing up. I think it has something to do with migration but Im not completely sure. Can anyone help me out?

BTW, Im running the asus k8v se deluxe board and the harddrive is split into 2 partitions, 130 gig and 70 gigs. Both is half filled.
