I'm using bootcamp with Windows XP. I'm trying to mount an external usb hard drive that is formatted and partitioned with Mac OS X 10.4.
I plugged it in and the little bubble windows say that is sees the harware and ready to use (once, it hasn't since) but while it says it can see it, even through the new hardware wizard, I can't see the drive or mount it. Do I need to download a shareware mounting software? Is it my network setting? Can I just not use a usb hard drive? Can I only see a windows formatted external hd? Any help? I have no idea how to use Windows and could use major help. Also I think others could find this helpful given that the partition size in bootcamp is limited...
