The Mac OS can't read NTSF formatted hard drives. You will need to format it with FAT32 so that it can be shared between the two types of computers. If it's a large hard drive Windows XP may not be able to format it with FAT32 . You might need to use a computer that has VISTA to format it or download a special formatting program.

Good Luck
