That will let you extract data to a drive on a oc from a mac drive.

AWESOME!!

Thanks for the help!!!

Ok, if thats the problem I can put it on my friend of a friends mac at some point and transfer everything. THENNNNNNN make the external hard drive EsFat or something like that? And that way it will work on both? Then when I am done I can made it NTFS again.

Is this my best way to go???

Even if I could just transfer the stuff to another drive I have no prob reformatting it but thats the easy part.

Ok, I can right click the drive as I said and see the options but I CAN NOT use them for some reason like drive letter etc.
