- What exactly does "2.00 spd" mean?
- What service pack?
- More important: is that disk partitioned and formatted? If formatted, what type of filesystem?
- Internal or external (USB, Firewire?)

I'm running XP Pro and connect my 400 Gig external USB drive all the time. Have you activated the drive in Computer Management?
