drive accessible via DOS, not My Computer (XP Pro)

I have a Dazzle 9 in 1 USB reader connected to my Dell P-IV system. The
reader is working fine except it does not appear as a drive in My Computer -
if I go to the command line I can switch to E: and do everything I need to,
but My Computer will not recognize it as a valid drive.

Any ideas why the command line recognizes it but it does not appear under My
Computer or Windows Explorer?

What does Disk Management have to say about it?
Start|Run|diskmgmt.msc
