Maybe there is something wrong with the used drive. As far as I know there should be no reason for this drive to not work in windows. The DVR spec is because there are properties about the drive suitable for DVR application such as 24/7 operation and quieter operation.
In fact I found reference to a review of an older model of pipeline that was used on a Vista PC.This post alludes to compatibility with a Desktop PC:
