Need some help...

When I plug up my 160gig Seagate external USB drive , it pops up and says
it's installing drivers for the following:
---------------------------------------------
USB Mass Storage Device
Disk Drive
---------------------------------------------
And when it's done and both say Ready to use next to them, it isn't listed
in My Computer. I've tried going into the Disk Management utility and it
doesn't show up there either. And it does this everytime I restart. PLEASE
help!!!!

Why post on a group for setup issues? This goes on the general group.
