• XP hangs after connecting an external hard drive via USB port

A new 500 GB external hard drive is recognized as new hardware, the driver installed and ready to use, but after that, the PC shuts down completely new. However, when I do a system startup after connection of the same two drives, everything looks OK. Also, no problem with a USB stick of 2 GB. How to find what's the problem?

• How to connect two external HARD drive satellite and the same printer?

  Hello

  I have now two laptop Toshiba Equium.
  What is the best way to connect them so that they can access the same external hard drive and the same printer?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I guess the two laptops are in the same network; Home LAN or WLan. Right?
  I this case I recommend you connect HARD drive and printer to one of the portable satellite.

  Then you can share the HARD drive and the printer with other cell phones on the LAN.

  You could add the network permission to others, and in this case the other participants of the network would be able to share the printer and HARD drive.

• Lost volume after connecting the external hard drive

  I had some movies I wanted to copy in one of my sharing folders, so I tied a drive hard usb at the back of my camera, but the nas don't seem to notice. I rebooted my nas and all of a sudden my internal volumes were absent and did not show the external drive and the system told me I have not put volumes in place.

  My two internal drives can be selected for formatting as if I just do a reset to factory... can someone help me re set my volume, I have over my data already out there.

  I guess its some sort of hardware conflict when I joined my outside, there dissregarded somehow my internal volumes.

  Problem solved no. thanks to an hour on the phone with the customer service...

  The naskey was not connected because I took out the usb to connect my external drive. Such a simple thing took all day to figure out.

• Windows does not start correctly when some multiple connection for external hard drive USB hubs are connected

  When starting, I have 2 USB hubs that connect to multiple external HD.

  If I disconnect the hubs, windows always starts very well.

  If I connect the HUB, windows delayed considerably the boot (approximately 5 to 10 minutes) and sometimes restarts the PC before getting to the screen of windows login, and after that the Windows logo is displayed during the start-up phase.

  Some HD sometimes take to start I hear but why Windows is restarted and all simply just do not excluding the HD or hubs does not not as expected?

  Any clue?

  Hello Patrick,.

  If other devices are working well, then clearly the USB ports have gone very well. I would say more that likely you have two defective USB Hub (it happens, I have several other defective in my junk mail boxes!).

  Given that the hubs are relatively expensive, I suggest you replace the two hubs with more heavy duty those able to withstand the high external HARD disk requirements. Try Newegg.com and TigerDirect.com, sort by best rating.

  The other thing, you don't mention if your hubs / ports are ports USB 3.0 and if you use a card like the adapter link. These configurations can sometimes cause problems, and it might be useful to re - check the different connections.

  Keep me posted.

  And thanks a lot for this.

  Kind regards
