WD USB drive (250GB) worked on PC, then used on Mac, now not PC!

This drive worked fine on my PC. USB powered. 250GB.

Used it on a Mac. Didn't add or remove any files. May have disconnected without proper eject.

When plugging in to PC it makes the 'My Computer' file run very slowly and, when the drive is picked up, doesn't seem to display what's on it (and when trying to access it the whole PC runs slowly).
