Right click on the drive in Disk Manager under Admin Tools and select 'Initialise'.

The drive will then be displayed in My Computer.

If this isn't the answer you're looking for, I don't care

a) You have a backup of this important information

and

b) These DivX have been made from DVD's that you have sitting on your shelf, and as such are simply digital backups.

Offcourse, but friends of mine borrow them from time to time, and I like to have them at hand.

[ON TOPIC]
Frankly, you going to have to give us a lot more information if you intend getting anywhere with this. Alternatively, find someone nice who knows what they are doing, and let them do it remotely with Remote assistant etc.

[OFF TOPIC]
Would RAWR by any chance be a shiny new Archos Recorder FM 20 GB? \o/

My usb2 card still hasnt arrived :/ but I've loaded on a bunch of my favourites, and I have to say it fking rocks \o/

MusicMatch seems to be the way forward for putting stuff on there tho - automatic playlist creation and copying etc - got ot be the win.


[HINT]
I'm not nice.

After using this wonderful little silver device for a day, I'm wondering how I put up with the old style jukebox for over a year. It simply does everything so much better and more reliably (the amount of file copy I/O errors and explorer crashes I had with the old JB20 was unbelievable - plus it looked like a brick).

Can't say I ever bothered with playlists, changing to the right album folder and pressing play is simple enough. All my music is now on there, with about 2-3gb to spare. I am a happy puppy.
