Please help on my Passport Essential

Hi, 

I need help on my Passport Essential. It used to be on a Mac format but then I reformatted it to a window format using Windows 7.

My problem is only I need help on this solution, only windows vista and windows 7 can detect my passport.

I need help on how can I make my passport be detected by a windows XP and also be detected by my TV.

I really need help on this because I have been struggling with this problem.

Thanks in advance. Please help me

Hello,

If the drive is not seen when you plug it to your Windows XP computer please try some basic troubleshooting

1- Disconnect the drive from the computer and restart the computer.

 

2- connect the drive to the computer (directly to the PC, not through a USB hub).

3- Make sure you hear the connection sound windows makes when recognizes a USB device.
