A reader has formatting problems
My TV has a facility to accept a hard drive via a USB port. I connected one and formatted it using the TV as instructed. I now no longer need it on the TV and want to use it with my PC. The PC installs it and announces it is ‘Ready to use’, but doesn't allocate a drive letter. Although the drive appears in all the various lists and is reported to be working properly, I can find no way of accessing it to reformat it for the PC.

Plug in the drive then go to Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Disk Management. In the lower right hand pane scroll down to find your removable drive, right-click on the shaded area and select Change Drive Letter and Path, assign it a letter then go back to the right-click menu and select Format.
