I have an Iomega eGo  external hard drive which works fine with Windows 7. I have read many posts regarding this issue, but can not find a solution. The Hard Drive is not recognized, however I do hear the iOmega beeps when plugged in just like it does on my Windows 7 laptop.  There is no way to display it's content in Windows 10.  I have connected the hard drive to other Win 10 machines and the same problem appears. I tried the Microsoft chat, but they could only help me with a payment of $149, which I do not have to spend.  I was sent direction to fix this problem on my own, but they did not work.  I am so frustrated ...  Can anyone help?
