I have an external harddrive.


Toshiba 250Gb external harddrive.

And, for some reason, whenever I plug it into a computer it suddenly says that it dosn't have the drivers NECESSARY to use the hardware. Is there anyway I can fix this or download drivers for this. I've tried everything I could think of, but nothing seems to be workng....so if someone knows ANYTHING about this can you let me know.Did it work before?
Any recent computer CHANGES?
Do you plug it in, while computer on?Did it work before?
Yes, has until a few days ago and from then on my comp doesn't recognize it.

Any recent computer changes?
None that I know of. Unless Windows updated itself one night, I haven't changed anything.

Do you plug it in, while computer on?
Yes. I've tried booting my comp with it plugged in and plugging it in after booting up, but both have the same results.Try it in a different machine and see if it is RECOGNISED...
If it is...boot your machine without the external.
Find it in Device Manager and uninstall it.
Power down and plug it in and re-boot...Windows should automatically re-install it.Tried...and it still says it has to install the drivers for the hardware....
