At first it could not recognize all of that big D drive. But Maxtor had a little exe file to alter XP's registry to allow it to recognize the drive. I ran it and Voila! There it was, in all of its glorious 300 gigabytes, along with my 35.5 GB of photo files (the same files that I spent 12 hours backing up to a Flashtrax over USB 1.1.) Still, it was configured in FAT 32 rather than NTFS. So I transferred those 35.5 GB of photo files to C, then tried running a cryptic Windows command line script to convert D to NTFS. Again, asking for help gave me the wrong advice. Doing it the "wrong" way, the drive was converted to NTFS within a few seconds. And not a file was lost.
