Okay I've previously used my Maxtor 80 GB HDD in my fat PS2 with HDLoader and I have no problems there but when I connect it to my PC(running Win 7) it doesn't show up. The H: drive(the one that was automatically assigned) shows no media in Disk Managment and when I click properties and then Volumes under status it states No Media, under Partition sytle it states Master Boot Record (MBR) and under Capacity it shows 0 MB. I have previously used this HDD for transfering PS2 ISO's on a Lenovo Ideapad running Win 7 but I returned the Lenovo due to a recurring I/O error. Any help I know it's not the IDE to USB connector or the HDD as they were both used within the last 2 weeks. Please HELP!

When I upgraded to Windows 7 I encountered the same problem.
Right click on WinHIIP, Select run as administrator.
That's all there is to it.
