Hi,
I think my computer is possessed, please I need some input. Short
version of what's happened:
External hard drive has been working fine via firewire cable hooked
up to old puter and 3 new puters (don't ask - problems w/all of
them). Came a point in time I had no desktop computer available so
hooked up the laptop to the external but via USB2. Worked fine
(slower because it was USB2 vs firewire but still worked).
Now, the external is hooked back up to the desktop via firewire and
the computer isn't seeing this K drive - it's like invisible. Have
tried both firewire ports, checked all hardware connections,
uninstalled and reinstalled the software several times still won't
see the K drive. Tried hooking up the USB cable just to see if it
would work ... here's where the "possessed" comes in - I plug the
USB2 cable into the back of the external - suddenly it sees the drive
as Windows Explorer pops open to the K drive! I plug the other end
of the USB cable into the computer and it disappears! How the heck
can the drive be read when the cable is only plugged into the
external and not into the computer and how the heck do I get it to
read the K drive via the firewire so I can use the software for
backing up and restoring? When I open the software to try this, it
doesn't see the drive - can only been seen via Windows Explorer it seems.
Thanks!
