| 689973 | 2008-07-18 06:44:00 | I have a Maxtop Basics Desktop backup disc and have problems with it loading - it will autoplay on one laptop, but not on the other = Toshiba Satellite A20. What do I need to change to get it to autoplay to show the files and to backup?? | rexkeys (8247) | ||
| 689974 | 2008-07-18 06:56:00 | Have a look at this Microsft article: support.microsoft.com | Blam (54) | ||
| 689975 | 2008-07-18 07:05:00 | I may have used the wrong term - autoplay?? If I "msconfig" the universal plug and play is running. Is there anything else I should configure ??? CD's play no problem. |

| 689976 | 2008-07-18 07:25:00 | I recall downloading a auto fix file which helped auto play to work. Something like this (www.microsoft.com)... | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||
| 689977 | 2008-07-18 07:45:00 | Thanks for the help .........but the autoplay for the CD is OK. When I connect the Maxtor Basics Desktop storage device it doesn't show, nor does it appear on "My Computer" as a separate drive |

| 689978 | 2008-07-18 07:51:00 | Did you install a service pack recently?? If you have XP?? If you did, go to device manager and delete the entries under USB controllers and reboot I take it, this backup disk is USB? |

| 689979 | 2008-07-18 08:04:00 | Have installed SP3 a couple of days ago to try to solve it. Yes, it is USB and works fine on the other laptop. |
