Win7 doesn't natively support emmc storage. So it probably would need a Win7 emmc driver to see it. There may be 3rd party emmc drivers available with a google search. Try this. Press Win+R, Enter 'diskmgmt.msc' Do you see the emmc drive in box the pops up? If not, go to the elevated command prompt. At the command prompt, enter 'diskpart'. At the diskpart prompt, enter 'list disk' What do you see?

Sorry, if the emmc drive does not appear in Win7 Disk Manager or with Win7 Diskpart 'list disk' command, then a Win7 compatible software driver would be needed. You can try a google search of the keywords "Windows 7" "emmc driver" to see if you can find any emmc drivers have been written and available for download. I'm currently not aware of any since Windows 7 is no longer supported by Microsoft.

Yeah, there are likely even more drivers missing on your TravelMate, since it was never designed with Windows 7 in mind.
