cant access external hd

by akifennec . Updated 17 years, 3 months ago

just now i was deleting things off my external hd when out of no where the widow closes and the computer shows that its been disconnected, i checked the cords and all was fine, so i restarted and it froze on boot-up. i unplugged the hd and it booted up fine. now everytime i try to plug the hd in it freezes my computer till it is unplugged. I also got this error $bitmap is corrupt and unreadable.

when i plug it in I can here it start up like it always does and the computer recolonizes it to some extant when its plugged in

all i know about the hd is that its a 250g maxtor
is there anyway to fix it
