| 355411 | 2005-05-15 10:26:00 | I thougth also that maybe I had a bad spyware or something that could be blocking it, so did a scan woth AVG, then Microsofts antispyware, then Lavasofts Adaware. Came up clean. | Nyuuji (5460) | ||
| 355412 | 2005-05-15 10:28:00 | Any thing in Control Panel > Computer Management > Event Viwer. Have a look at USB Man (http://www.usbman.com/), look at the sections on the left, there's also OS specific troubleshooting a little further down on the same side. |

Over the space of 25 secs, there are about 49 events all with the excactly same entry written in them: Warning- 15/5/05- (time) - disk- None - 51 - N/A - LOUNGEPC Not sure what this means though :confused: Will check out that site now |

| 355414 | 2005-05-15 11:08:00 | Downloaded and installed latest drivers for usb from mobo site. Still no progress. Will check BIOS settings to see if they are what they should be according to USBMAN's website. :dogeye: |

| 355415 | 2005-05-15 23:48:00 | Does the drive have a second cable for supplying additional power to the drive? If not, or you are not using the cable your USB ports may be unable to sufficiently power the device. | BIFF (1) | ||
| 355416 | 2005-05-16 03:18:00 | That "event" message might be saying that the disk is not responding to commands quickly enough. This can happen if the disk isn't up to speed in time (or not running at all). That might indicate that the USB isn't supplying enough power for the motor. It is obviously giving enough for the electronics in the external drive, but that's probably 3.3V these days, while the motor will need the full 5V. Have you (or can you borrow) a powered USB hub to try it with? |

| 355417 | 2005-05-16 03:30:00 | Are you using a USB 2 cable?? Not a USB 1.1 cable?? Using a USB 2 cable, would make a diff. |

| 355418 | 2005-05-16 03:38:00 | A USB1.1 cable should just make it run at the lower speed. The USB communications are working ... the OS sees it there as a removable disk. It's just not getting data from it. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 355419 | 2005-05-16 03:42:00 | Well true but having the wrong cable may also cause probs. | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 355420 | 2005-05-16 10:06:00 | The cable is just one that came with the case. Dosent have anything written on it apart from that squigly fork-like symbol. Case has "High-speed USB 2.0" written on it. As far as power is concerned I know my PSU is 300W. On this I have P4 2.4, one 40GB drive, two optical drives, one low spec graphics card and one pci lan card. Too much? |
