Solve : attaching external hard drives crashes computer?

1.	Solve : attaching external hard drives crashes computer?
Answer» hi, i've just rebuilt my computer with xp service pack 2 and all works fine. except when i attach either my maxtor external hard drive or my ipod, when it seems to crash the computer unless i wait quite a while (10 mins or so). sometimes i have to reboot and endure the same problem again. is this common? and OBVIOUSLY is there a solution? MANY thanksThere is a small section on how your usb port should be set up maybe this will help http://www.directron.com/installusb.html Check you PSU can handle the power REQUIREMENTS for an extra DEVICE..
