USB drive formatted in Mac undetectable in XP

by dp2810 . Updated 15 years, 5 months ago

I bought a Seagate Freeagent Go USB 300 GB hdd and did the initial formatting in Mac. Now I’m using PC with Win XP where this hdd does not get detected on explorer.
The hdd has no drive letter assigned in Device Management>Storage>Computer Management, hence no option to format or change the drive letter.
Even when I use command prompt > diskpart > list volume, the volume isn’t listed.
What can I do to make it get detected in XP?

Thanks in advance!
