I am replying to myself because i have been able to access the tomtom harddrive and am now doing a copy/paste backup to a new folder that ive created in downloads (just my preferred storage place for programs etc).
The copying is estimated by windows 7 at 23 hours (All EEC & USA Maps etc).
I started laptop in safemode by holding F8 and just selected safemode.
Then tried chkdsk f:
Right clicked and scanned for virusses but only accessed for a couple of minutes.
Tried Right zclick format - still no joy.
Went to computer management and changed/created a new path creating a dats file on c drive.
Uninstalled and tried a reboot.
Still wouldnt access after reboot and f: not showing.
Using device manager i searched for and installed new hardware after changing usb port.
It was found and installed and with a right click enabled.
Then showed in Disk Management as a healthy drive.
So am now waiting for backup copying to finish before i try to update with tomtom home.
If unsucessful i will format as advised on tomtom forums.
Will update later.
Some of the above may help recover/find/access inaccessible HDD and other USB Pen Drives.
