Vista SP1 and USB drive - Computer not responding
When I connect a USB drive (SATA, 120GB) to a Vista Home Premium
system (SP1), and Computer is selected, the Computer window says [not responding], as does the Management Console. Only when the drive is turned off, do Computer and Management Console function properly. The Vista system is running on an HP slimline desktop with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor, running the 32-bit OS, and using a high speed USB 2.0 enclosure (# ECS-STU35) with the Vista's USB drivers. BTW, the same USB drive mounts and its contents are accessible when attached to an XP Pro (SP2) system. |

Vista SP1 and USB drive - Computer not responding
I have got exactly the same symptoms with a Dell Dimension 9200 and a Philips
spd100cc/00. This external usb drive also works perfectly well with Windows XP on a Dell Inspiron.

Perhaps the disk does not receive enough power from usb.
Can you try an external power supply, or Y cable? --PA "Cathode Follower" wrote in message ... I have got exactly the same symptoms with a Dell Dimension 9200 and a Philips spd100cc/00.

Is the drive formatted in NTFS or Fat32 format?
