Need driver for external hardrive
I already contacted my computer manufacturer w/c is dell on this issue, they
cant do anything about it and asked me to contact the manufacter of my external hardrive (simpletech). Usually, external hard drive is a Plug and Play system which works on my other computer, by the way (sony, and XP OS) but not on my new one - Windows Vista. Even the manufacter of external hard drive cant provide me the driver. He said that I can get it to Microsoft and ask for the driver upgrade. Ive been passing from one person to another and Im getting frustrated now. Is there anyone who can help me? Please? I need the driver for my external hard drive. Thanks

What actually happens when you connect the drive? Do you see error messages? If so, what do they say?

If so, what do they say? Try deleting your C:\windows\inf\INFCACHE.1 which may be corrupted. Before you can delete it you must edit its file permissions to grant Full Control to the Users group.
