1111404 2010-06-18 11:29:00 What if you remove it and connect it internally? Or connect it to another computer, if you've got another PC? That'll tell us if the enclosure, or the hdd is stuffed or something Speedy Gonzales (78)

1111410 2010-06-21 01:04:00 Whats the hdd? SATA or IDE?? If its SATA 2 and the gf's PC has only got SATA 1, switch the switch / jumper on the hdd to SATA 1 / 150, then it'll work Speedy Gonzales (78)
1111411 2010-06-21 01:24:00 Have you tried powering off your PC. Plug the drive in and powerup and reboot?

I had one that refused to operate until I did that.
