You might check the device manager to make sure your FW card/inputs drivers are present. It should be located automatically by the OS and mounted if it can be recognised. Check in Disk management to see if it's there and format it if neccessary. _________________________ -- Murray I What part of 'no' don't you understand? Is it the 'N', or the 'Zero'?
