    Moved to the Bionic section so the pros can chime in for you.
    Respect is #1 here at Droid Forums.

    It will show in "my computer" not control panel. Change USB mode to USB mass storage. Your SD and internal will show separately. When you do root though don't have in mass storage.

    If you are trying to root still you bionic needs to be in charge only mode. Also, as someone already mentioned, try a different USB cable. You could also try another USB port on your PC.
