This occures when youare using Windows 98 usually. If this is the case, then go the the manufacturers website and download the drivers for windows 98. Windows XP has native USP support that should automatically see the drive. Otherwise I would say that the pocket drive is bad, Try shecking it on another PC to find out for sure.

If it is windows XP you may need to configure the drive in the control panel>administrative tools>disk managment. Depending on what the problem is you should be able to sort it out there. Some times it is as simple as assigning a drive letter to the drive. Is it windows XP? send me an email with more information I may be able to help you. or go to this forum I'm a member there the techies are ace to http://www.pchelpforum.com/ tell em madmatt sent you :-)

Then the pin on the back of the hard drive is set incorrectly. Most USB external drives require the drive be set to Master, not slave or cable select. If this is set to master, then there is either a problem with the drive, or the enclosure.

Is there a driver (CD-Rom) that came with the hard disk? If so, maybe you'll need to uninstall & re-install it.
