Hello, I see you're having trouble accessing your USB drive from your desktop. Let me try to help. You mentioned connecting via the same method used on your laptops, but it doesn't work there either. Since you recently upgraded your desktop's motherboard, that could be the cause—especially if the connection worked before. Have you checked the USB port on your desktop? Also, ensure the drive is properly seated and not damaged. If the issue persists, try connecting through a different USB port or using a different cable. Let me know what you find!
