External USB SATA HDD enclosure not recognised

by oliver.licari . Updated 18 years, 1 month ago

Hi,
I have a Toshiba A200 Satellite Notebook running Vista Home Premium.
I just bought an external enclosure with a WD SATA HDD for backup and transfer of information.

The new enclosure is supposed to be plug and play (pray) and compatible with Vista.
It works perfectly well with my desktop running XP but when I plug it into my laptop nothing happens !!

My usb ports on the laptop work ell with usb pendrives and other devices.

I have also noticed tha this enclosure is not even recognised by the bios.

Please help me !!
