My external HD at first won't show up in My Computer, but after going to My Computer/Manage/Disk Management it will show. But then when trying to access the drive I get the error "F:\ is not accessible. The parameter is incorrect."

Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Thanks in advance for any help.

*Update*

Now I can't get the HD to show up at all.

Ok so the HD doesn't show up, I've tried a few drive programs (Testdisk etc) but none of them pick the drive up.

Does the drive even show up in the bios ? I assume it does not since other programs cant even see the drive if I understand your post correctly

No it doesn't, but I've just this minute learned that the hard drive doesn't support 64-bit OS - and that's what I have on my new pc. I will try testdisk on a different PC.
