| 438479 | 2006-03-15 23:44:00 | what version of windows are you running? usually 2000 & xp will automatically detect USB drives but other you'll probably need drivers | Jimmy D (2061) | ||
| 438480 | 2006-03-16 04:20:00 | Make sure you set your USB hard drive to "Master" otherwise Windoze can't see it. | supertrouper (6665) | ||
| 438481 | 2006-03-16 04:25:00 | Were you able to check at Device manager and see any comments/errors on the USB Controllers? Were you able to detect other USB device in your USB Port? | elixir (9986) | ||
| 438482 | 2006-03-16 04:29:00 | You might need to have the disk formatted before it will appear in "My Computer". | Graham L (2) | ||
| 438483 | 2006-03-16 05:40:00 | Yes, maybe the HDD is fresh with no partition yet. If its that the case, Go to My Computer, Right Click then select Manage --->Storage/ Disk Management--->a 2nd HDD might be able to detect. Please proceed to the creation of partition of the NEW HDD, then format the new drive if it has already a partition. | elixir (9986) | ||
| 438484 | 2006-03-17 21:56:00 | Were you able to check at Device manager and see any comments/errors on the USB Controllers? Were you able to detect other USB device in your USB Port? Yes Mouse, game controller, USB hub, even SD Card Reader all work ok. But USB Storage can not be seen. I am running xp pro upgrade. Dont see any probs in Device manager. |
