i just buy Western Digital MyPassport  1TB
but i have problem that this hard drive portable won't boot if it's connected to my laptop Acer Aspire 4920 , it stuck at acer logo screen, after i unplugged it, it boot just fine. Any SOLUTION for this?
it only happen at my laptop and it's working fine at my PCYou can't run Windows from an external HDD...this is by design.i am not running windows from the WD Hard drive.
What i mean is, the WD hard drive only stay plugged, and i have my first boot device set to laptop hard drive, and it stuck won't boot, i am not booting from my external WD. Just the device stay plugged in and my laptop stuck at acer logo screen.Then don't stste external won't boot in your Topic when thats not what your TRYING...
Does the laptop boot properly with the WD unplugged ? ?
If so do that....then wait 5 minutes and connect the WD...report back with results...
P.S. Whats on the WD and did it work before ?yes, it's working if it stay unplugged.
there's some file installer in the WD and some document only, it's working fine in windows, just won't boot if it plugged. I NEED to unplug it everytime i restart my laptop so it's not very CONVENIENT. I would run chkdsk /r on it if it were me...somethings amiss...
