Installing Drivers for HDD

I've run into a snag trying to get my external HDD to work after reinstalling Windows on the system drive. I can't get it to recognize it's presence while plugged in. I've tried the HDD's site at http://inoi.com/English/DriverDownloads.asp , but naturally those drivers are for windows 98 when I've got XP. I've tried scanning for hardware a variety of ways, but can't seem to make it find it.
It worked yesterday before the HDD crashed, but I can't recall how I ever got it to work without drivers lying around. I know when I plug it into most folks' computers they just find it attached, so perhaps it has something to do with plug'n'play being messed up? How might I make that work?
Sorry to have such an obscure sounding question, but I dunno how to make this recognized by Windows after trying all day.
