baronstrangler,
If that previous reference doesn't resolve your problem, try using google to search on: code 10 vista, or words to that effect. There are various conditions that can cause a code 10, and there is a lot of information on the Internet about it. -- freddy "baronstrangler" wrote: Hi, I would really appreciate some help.

External Hard Drive
If the external drive will not work on any PC (XP, Vista, laptop, desktop,
etc) then it's probably failed. -- Richard G. Harper [MVP Shell/User] * NEW!
