Okay, here goes. Hoping someone can help me, recently I Upgraded my PS3 HDD and took the old 40gig 2.5 SATA drive and purchased a case for it to use as an external drive. Now apparently after doing some reading I know it's formatted in FAT32 which windows should be able to read, but for some reason I just can't get it to show up anywhere. Not in disk management or anything like that. The light is on the external but no movement from windows. My question is how do I get it to show up to format the stupid thing?

Cheers!
