I had an external hard drive (Z) that crashed and no longer powers up. The pc (XP) recognizes it, but says there is no power. It’s plugged in, I’ve changed usb cords, i’ve tried inserting it in the bay. I have already decided the data is gone. However, now i’m trying to clean up the PC and I can’t delete several installed programs that are looking for the Z drive. I don’t know – maybe when I sent things over to the Z drive as a back up the registry routed the programs there?
I get the error code 1327.
I’ve run a registry cleaner and it didn’t notice the problem…
Any help is appreciated!
