QUOTE (Kit-Tsukasa @ Jan 11 2010, 09:20 PM) Does it show up under device manager?
If your running windows 7 or vista, go to start, search device manager, and see if you can locate your drive or the usb detection. Is there a yellow caution sign on any of your devices?
Given your case, it probably will no longer show up under disk drives since My Computer doesn't even detect it.
Hey!!!
I have had problems with my external hard disk and came across this forum!!
I went into device manager and saw that there WAS a little yellow sign next to a device that's called *Unknown* or *Unidentified*..
So there IS a little yellow sign and it DOES show that the computer detected a connection..
Is that good or bad?
I have almost 500GB of movies stored on here.. dropped it several times, different heights..
I am at the verge of sobbing
Anyway you can help?
