I dont know enough about windows to tell you how to figure that out I'm afraid, but my guess would be go into device manager and look around.
My experience is that XP's explorer partially works. Sometimes it sees devices and sometimes it doesn't. When it sees a device there is a large probability that it won't be able to browse the files on the device, but sometimes it can. I was unable to determine exactly what causes the differences and eventually gave it up as a lost cause.
