Operating System. What operating system and service pack LEVEL are you running, e.g. Windows XP Professional SP2? 2. Power. Does external hard drive have its own power source or are you attempting to use USB BUS power? 3. Device Manager. What does Device Manager Utility show? Any yellow or red error indicators? Look under the categories "Disk", "Other", "Universal serial bus controller".
