Default External and OS

Hi!

I'm in a sticky situation:

I've got a Maxtor 500GB external hard drive and I use it between my desktop with XP and my notebook with Vista. But the problem is when I connect the Maxtor from my notebook to desktop or vice versa, it becomes unreadable and the computer that it is afterwards connected, signifies the data is corrupted etc. until I do full CHKDSK shit (takes hours). I've already lost some data cause of this weird stuff and I need to know how to fix this or get the explanation why is this happening to my Maxtor.

PS. I've changed it to a new one a while ago so it ain't broken, just some conflict between desktop xp and notebook vista...
