[QUOTE="KiranC, post: 846807, member: 101417"] Hello, I have a 500 Gb harddisk which i partitioned here on Mac. 1) 150 GB (Plan to use it as a Time Machine backup). 2) 350 Gb ( Fat 32 format to use it on both windows and here on Mac) Now, The same HDD, i got it detected on Vista (the 2nd disk) and formatted the 350 Gb to an NTFS file format. I installed the NTFS 3G application so that my system can detect the NTFS HDD. But what ever it is that I do, i am unable to do so. The iDisk utility refuses to mount even though it shows up over there. On the other hand I have a PenDrive (NTFS format) which i am able to use to copy and files around between the two systems. Anyone, any idea of why is the dual partition HDD of mine causing problems? or is it something that i did wrong? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
