hi
ok i lost everything on this backup drive today after fruitlessly
trying to get it to work under windows. so i formatted my lacey 250
gigabyte drive under mac os x and said i wanted it to be ms dos fat
so now when i plug it in to the windows side of the mac before i go to
windows perminantly i need to see if it works, and it won't show up
what please am i doing wrong. i thought if it was fat 32 windows could
read it
