Win2K Cannot Read Hard Drive

Hi people

I have a 60GB drive partitioned into three 20GB chunks. All partitions have data that I want to keep & use on them. I hooked up the drive to my latest-built Win2K machine, and the only addition to My Computer is a single drive F: (D: and E: are CD & DVD) which “is not formatted do I want to format it now?”.

Natch I don’t want to format the thing! Why can’t Win2K read this drive?

Linux reads it fine, and I just did a litle test with a bootable Win98CD – all partitions are readable just fine! :-/

Any ideas? The partitions were created initially under fdisk and used extensively under Win2K *only* (albeit on a different machine).

Many TIA

Dave
