Add-ons - December 2006

I have an external usb hard drive enclosure and It works nicely with 3 other hard drives that I have, but when I plug in this Maxtor 120GB hard drive... nothing happens.

Disk Utility detects nothing, there's nothing on the desktop, AND after that nothing else will mount, not even the hard drives that were working before, until I restart my computer.

I am 98.3% certain that the hard drive is functional as I used it just a few days ago inside another computer.

Also, would the Hard Drive being locked cause something like this?
(I'm pretty sure it isn't locked, but it just might be...)

I have a mic and speakers. I am using WinXP Pro. The modem is PnP w/o a CD. XP detects and installs the modem. I need to use it just for manual dialing like a regular phone but I do NOT want to pay for anything. I need a FREE solution that is not a limited trial. The best thing would be if theres something already in XP. I use DSL for my internet btw.
