I need for the Vista to see it. I checked out the website, and there are only drivers for Windows 98 computers. There is no need for the drivers for Vista. Here is the site for this particular model. I have a 250 G just in case.

A mouse and a keyboard for instance. There are OK. I'm typing using it. Let me try to do a System Restore. And if I have a point, I'll roll back to somewhere last week. Thanx. -- ilyabyk83 ::*Thank You for Your Help*:: ::* Best Regards*:: |

You definitely have gone into Disk Management and it's not listed there, right? Control Panel Classic Mode - Admin Tools - Computer Management - Disk Management.
