Iomega External HD USB port failure

by dondefy . Updated 16 years, 2 months ago

I have an Iomega 31706500, purchased several years ago. I haven’t used it in in over a year. Today when i plugged it in under Win7 the usb port was not recognized i.e. as if nothing was plugged in

I also tried win xp to no avail.

I have opened the case and didn’t notice any disconnections

The drive also get very hot but there is no clicking sound on it.

Device manger obviously does not recognize it either i.e. not present on the list as if nothing is plugged in.

Any ideas?

Warm Regards,
Defy
