HARD drive external, Toshiba PX1395E, not plug and play in Windows XP

Hi all

Thanks for reading this.

Just bought a number of HDD 2.0 USB 750 GB external PX1395E.
I want to use to back up files from my old computer to my new computer.
In fact, my old pc recognizes the HARD drive (plug-and-play) and I already copied the required data.

BUT: my new computer, with Windows XP Professional, Service pack 3. Does NOT recognize the HARD drive.
I used several (versions 1.1 and 2.0) USB ports and everything is connected to the way that it should.
Windows tells me that I have plugged 'something', but is unable to recognize what it is and I can't use the material.

I think I need a driver to make this work. Site Web de Toshiba does not provide this particular driver (I checked, but it cannot find).

Is there anyone with a solution?

Thanks in advance.

Do you see the HARD drive in the disk management?
Control Panel-administrative tools-online-online disk management computer management online

Another way is that reinstall you the chipset driver. Look at the Toshiba site to download and choose the right one.

Look for yellow exclamation marks Device Manager.

Let me know, what you're doing.

  • What is the reliability of Plug and Play in Windows 7?

    What is the reliability of Plug and Play in Windows 7? I mean he came in windows in Windows 98. Sometimes, when you plug a USB device, you may need a set of 60 seconds to restart your computer. Our company become lazy 60 seconds is too long to wait to use a USB device? It might be a good improvement in the next generation of Windows operating systems, but is it reliable, Plug and Play in Windows 7? Any ideas?

    There is a finite amount of drivers that can be incorporated into Windows such as Windows recognizes the device. In addition, device manufacturers must submit the drivers to Microsoft to incorporate into Windows at construction time. Out of the box Plug and Play does not work for all possible configurations of hardware.

    Windows 7 Service pack 1 is released in 2010, the last chance for drivers to be incorporated into the build. Devices with their own hardware ID, which were released after the construction cannot be identified automatically and must, by definition, provide the required drivers for the start install but after that, they should recognize the device automatically. Although the USB 3 specification has been ratified by little around the time of the release of Windows 7 more material supporting this specification came out that shortly after. Windows 7 does not natively support USB 3.

    Windows 7 of Plug-and-Play support works very well, but depends on the hardware manufacturer provides drivers reliable and other support files when it comes to new hardware. Your problem is not with Windows, but your reception units. Windows 7 is now disabled standard support.

  • PC stopped recognizing 3.5 hard drive external Toshiba

    Hi all

    I have a 3.5/250 GB Toshiba hard drive external. I use Windows XP as my operating system and for some reason, my PC stopped recognizing saying 'USB not recognized '.
    It is supposed to be taken & play and I'm sure that I didn't have a driver, when I installed it.
    If anyone can help or has any suggestions, I would be grateful.

    Thank you

    Hallo Malc

    It is possible that you have removed the external device without using the option remove the device safely. Restart the machine and try again.

    Otherwise, you can remove all ports USB device manager and start option to add material on the list. After detection and installation it should work again.

  • Windows 7 does not recognize my Dell 2407WFP monitor - only as monitor not Plug-and-Play credits.

    This monitor is able to execute the resolution 1920 x 1200 and it worked well on the same laptop Dell Latitude D820 under XP Pro SP3. However, Windows 7 does not recognize the Dell Monitor (shows as non-Plug-and-Play monitor credits) and will go no higher than 1600 x 1200. The monitor on the laptop will run in 1920 x 1200 and also 1920 x 1200 poster XP running inside a virtual machine, so the problem is with Windows 7 not properly recognizing the Dell 2407WFP monitor in VGA mode. All other operating systems work very well to support the material properly.

    The laptop is running a NVidia Quadro NVS 120 M map. I tried several versions of Vista Dell drivers (do not have for Windows 7 - therefore Dell is not to follow). NVidia has no drivers for this card because it specially designed for Dell and all pilots must come from Dell (new Dell doesn't help here - I know that Windows 7 was just recently released but there are important suppliers for some time. Thought Dell was big by taking charge Microsoft with their business line of products but I think that even they cannot follow.

    It seems that the problem is also Windows 7 is not correctly identify the Dell monitor and many other monitors as well. Unfortunately, I doubt that this issue will never be resolved by Microsoft. I have yet to see that all the issues MS resolved long. I begin to see the truth in the last pub in Apple vs MS on television. Well the time to upgrade the new hardware.

    If anyone has a suggestion or a solution to solve this - I'm all ears!

    Don

    wait until that Dell publishes drivers for win 7 or you can contact them for the same thing.

    I never see the other two - it just stops do not find anything for the "unknown device". I scanned the forums here and besides anything. Seems to me that my system does not find the right sequence of events (Composite then HID).

    Any help is appreciated!

    Hi Jim,.

    What is the brnad and model of the PC, you cannot install the USB headphnes on?

    What is the brand and model of the PC headset works on?

    I suggest to remove all devices external and other devices in your computer, then restart and try installing the headset.

    You could go in Device Manager, click the view tab at the top and select hidden devices.

    You can remove all instances of the headphones and other devices which are not connected, and then restart the computer.

    As stated in your second post, what chipset driver version you did install (version number in particular, not "the last" please)?
