Just got a new Nook HD and my "old" desktop running WinXP is recognizing a Nook in the USB port, but that's it. Not seeing any available free space, saying all 16GB is used. Calibre doesn't even see my Nook as existing! When I change from MTP to PTP Windows doesn't see my Nook. So OI cahgne back to MTP and then the computer tells me it needs to upgrade to an OS X file to make my Nook work.

Anyone know what I can do with this?

EDITED: Nook Support supervisor says Win XP does not have necessary drivers to work with new HD Nooks. Therefore, I need to get new drivers, which are found by upgrading to Windows Media Player 11 or higher.
