Welcome to MR.

Have you looked in Disk Management (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308423 for how to get there)? Is the drive seen there but just not assigned a drive letter?

Were the drivers you installed from an OS X Snow Leopard (10.6) disc? The drivers you want were not available in Leopard 10.5.

Have you installed all the Windows and Apple updates?

Note that without additional software a drive used for Time Machine will only be accessible in read-only mode using the Boot Camp 3.x drivers.
