How can I mount an EXT2 partition under Windows 7? Not under Total Commander, because I'm searching for a solution to "see the partition from the My Computer" icon.

Are there any? A read-only file system would be enough, as I don't really need a writable EXT2 file system under Windows 7 Pro (64bit).

UPDATE: the EXT2 disk is really an USB HDD.

There are several options, but in the long run I prefer having a FAT32 or NTFS partition that I share on a dual boot system.

Some screenshots are here.

I Googled "mount an ext2 partition under windows 7" (taken directly from your question title) and there were several promising links.

I didn't read any of them, but I noticed Google's description of the first said:

Note that in Windows Vista/7 you must use “Run as administrator” ...

Does this help?
