USB driver for external hard drive

Is there a download driver usb as a microsoft? My external USB gives an error message about the dysfunction of the usb driver...

Is there a download driver usb as a microsoft? My external USB gives an error message about the dysfunction of the usb driver...

Most likely, it is a misleading message.  Most external hard drives do not require a special USB driver.  But check out the website of the manufacturer of the drive.

What brand/model of external hard drive?

The player has a power source or he relies on the USB connection for power supply?

It worked before?  If so, what happened just before the error started?

What version of Windows, including the service pack is installed?

Please post the full error message without paraphrase.

Have you tried to connect the player to another USB port, preferably one on the back of the case, if the computer is a desktop/Tower computer?

  • 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.

  • I forgot my password for external HARD drive

    Hello

    Last year, I bought a USB HDD external 320.

    This external HARD drive is protected by a password. I have never changed the password, so the drive has the original password.

    I didn't use the disc about 6 months and now I put music in my iPod, but I don't remember the password. I know it is 1234 or certain numbers like that, but I can't access my disk :-(

    Everyone knows the original password Toshiba for hard drives?

    Thanks in advance

  • Application of USB 3.0 external hard drive to be reformatted

    I have been using an external 1 TB raid array on my old computer using USB 2.0.  I just bought a new computer with USB 3.0 ports, but, when I plug in my raid array in either of the USB 3.0 two ports, Windows 7 64-bit indicates that the disk must be reformatted.  Fitness is not an option because I have 800 MB of music top and nothing of that size that I can come back up, but clicking on 'Cancel', causes the drive letter to disappear from the list of Windows Explorer.  However, every time that I plug it into one of the USB 2.0 ports of the new computer it works fine - it seems that there is nothing wrong with the device itself.  I checked and it is USB 3.0 compatible and provided with a USB 3.0 cable.

    Should an external hard drive that has been used on USB 2.0 really be reformatted before it can be used on USB 3.0?    Any ideas please?  Thanks in advance.

    Hi Anish

    Could you please close this thread.  I initially bought the raid array when I got a laptop with a small hard drive.  Now, I have a desktop computer, I decided to take the two drives of 1 TB out of it and put them in computer as additional internal hard drives - one for my music and one to save periodically on.  It worked well.

  • My USB 2.0 does not detect the USB keys or external hard drives

    I attach my USB mouse and it works fine but I can't detect my external hard drive or memory key USB. Why?

    Try plugging a storage drive (external hard drive or USB key) and go to:
    Control Panel-> administration-> computer management tools
    Under, click on storage disk management
    The storage drive appears in the list at the bottom right? If so, can you do a right click on it and select change drive letter and paths, and assign a drive letter.
    It will now appear in desktop and when you plug it in.

    If the drive does not appear in disk management, can you just tell me if it's a USB port specific, that you are having problems or if readers do not appear in one of your USB slots and also if you tried the discs in another system to make sure that they highlighted it?

  • implementation of the letters for external hard drives

    I have a new external hard drive and when I plug it, the computer will beep, but when I open my computer, there is no indication of the letter where the external hard disk and I can't open it to see or access what is on it. He worked for some time as E drive but I can no longer access disc can someone give me a simple solution? Thanks for any help.

    I'm not an expert, but I did something similar a few times.  I remember well, I clicked on computer (in the Start Menu), selected to manage, which took me to the computer (via the "C:\Windows\System32\CompMgmtLauncher.exe" command line) Management Console.

    I hope that, when you select disk management from the Console (near the bottom of the menu under storage), you will see a list of your external drives.  Just right click on any player to get a menu which includes 'change drive... letter and access paths. ».    (You know to avoid the 'Format' unless you ready for it.)

    Hello

    The error would have occurred if the services related to backup Windows could have been disabled. This can also occur due to other security software installed on the computer.

    Y at - it a third-party security software installed on the computer?

    I suggest you to check if the services are running and in manual mode.

    You can follow the methods:

    Method 1:

    Follow the steps to check if services are running. If not, restart them and check if that helps:

    (a) click Start.

    (b) type Services in the start search.

    (c) in the Services window, search for the shadow copy volume.

    (d) right click on the Service.

    (e) click Properties.

    (f) select Start on ManualType.

    (g) click OK.

    (h) now repeat the same steps for Windows backup service as well.

    Check if you find the same error trying to save using the hard disk. If Yes, proceed to method 2.

    Method 2:

    I suggest to temporarily disable the security software installed on the computer and check if it helps. Check out the link to do so:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    Important note: security software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    It will be useful.

    Just reply to us with the results. We will be happy to help you.
