My computer does not show my ipod as a drive. I took it to my freinds house who has xp and configured it, but my comp doesn't display it as a drive. It has it listd in the hardware manager, but it isnt listed as a drive. I have windows me. My ipod is the 4 gig mini

Do you have iTunes installed? You must have iTunes installed in order to put music on it.

P.S. I highly recommend you upgrade to XP; WindowsMe is a piece of shit.

Did you actually set it to be usable as an external drive? There's a specific setting in iTunes to configure your iPod to show up as a hard drive. (Note that the directories in which the music is stored will not show up in your file system, only the data storage areas will.)
