Western Digital My Book Premium edition installation
Hello:
I have a Gateway Intel Pentium 4, 1600 Mhz computer with 512mb of memory running Windows XP Service Pack 2. I just bought a Western Ditigal Premium edition 250 gb external drive. It should be a plug and play device, but my computer won't recognize it. I have gone to the WD site and downloaded software, but no luck. It says I don't need drivers. Any idea why my computer won't recognize it? lynnpd1 |

Any idea why my computer won't recognize it? Can you try the firewire interface ? Why go from one slow and obsolete interface to another To see if there is a problem with the drive or just the USB, ****wit child. when the drive is clearly dead and should be returned? You dont know that yet, ****wit child. Can be something as basic as a screwed USB stack. TOTAL NONSENSE! It's a bad drive. Simply get a replacement. You dont know that yet, ****wit child. You could try deleting all the USB controllers in the Device Manager and rebooting and see if that allows the drive to be seen. reams of its rabid deviate fantasys flushed where they belong |

The USB has already been deemed working properly as he determined this from the proper operation of all his other USB peripherals Thanks for that completely superfluous proof that you have never ever had a ****ing clue about anything at all, ever. If the USB stack is screwed, that can and does affect just one drive. when the drive is clearly dead and should be returned? You dont know that yet, ****wit child.
