I cannot get my firewire drive to show up in windows, and my external usb drives do not show up. My flash drive does though.

Any Ideas?

Might help if you told us what system you have., and which drivers you've already tried, and how you installed them.

Go into the Disk Manager and check to see if they are there. If they are then try setting the drive letter for them. Also, I assume that they are formatted with something Windows understands.

The disks are listed in Device manager, but where do you set the drive letter?

Right click on My Computer and select Manage. Then look for Disk Management under the Storage tree.

EDIT: I'm not seeing Firewire drives, but my USB one is visible.
