Question about Maxtor external HD's
I've had a 40 gig maxtor external HD for about 2 months now. My internal HD just crashed and i had to format, but luckily i have most of the files i need backed up on my external. After formatting my internal, i updated windows completely to sp2 and all, but when i plug in my external it says the usual 'device is installed and ready for use' or what have you and then when i go to click on my external in 'My Computer' it asks me to format it even though it has been formatted and has alot of important data in it. If anyone has any idea how to fix this please respond I would be VERY grateful. Thank you for you time
