Q: I do not see my drive listed in the My Computer window,

but it does appear in the Device Manager list.

A: Right-click on My Computer. Select Manage in the pop-up

menu. In the Computer Management window and navigate to

Storage -> Disk Management. In the Disk Management window,

you should see a list of available storage devices. Look for the

disk that has a capacity closest to your Fantom Drives unit,

and right-click on the corrolating right-hand box. In the pop-up

menu that appears select "Delete Partition." The description will

change to say "Online" & "Unallocated". Right-click on the box

and select Create New Partition in the pop-up menu. When the

Partition Wizard appears, select "Primary Partition" and click

"Next." Click "Next" in the next dialog, selecting the default value

for the drive. You will then see a drive letter (you can change

this drive letter if you wish); click "Next." You will then be asked

to format the drive.

Q: After I connected the drive to my PC, I got the following

alert message: HI-SPEED USB Device Plugged into non-HI-

SPEED USB Hub." What does this mean?

A: Windows 2000 and XP users will get this alert message if you

plugged the drive into a USB port that only supports USB 1.1.

This is fine, except your drive will operate at USB 1.1 speeds.
