Hi, I have an 80GB Seagate hard disk that I have bought at most two years ago and I bought a hard disk enclosure as well. Just about two months ago, it started acting up - it wasn't being recognised by my comp. I have a new laptop now and it still doesn't work like it's supposed to. My comp recognizes it as a USB Mass Storage Device but the hard drive doesn't appear. When I try to access Device Manager my comp freezes and when I unplug the device from the usb port, my comp goes back to normal.
I have searched the web for numerous forums that may give me an idea as to how I can solve this problem. This motivated me to buy a new hard drive enclosure. However, doing this did not solve my problem.
Now, when I plug the hard disk enclosure, my comp reads the enclosure but when it starts to install the hard disk, I get a blue screen with a "physical memory dump error". I don't know what to do know. I have important data in my hard drive that's why I want to recover it.
Help please?
