i have a seagate freeagent 320 GB external hard drive, which has had a few problems with vista before, but now has decided not to work. I’ve tried deleting INFCACHE.1 , updating USBSTOR.SYS, i have tried it in every USB port on my laptop, the drive itself if just fine, works normally on my Windows XP desktop. Under the device manager, it shows up as a USB mass storage device, but not as a drive. When I uninstall the device, it shows that it failed to install. Under properties from USB mass storage device in device manager it says “the device cannot start. (code 10)”
Lots of important stuff on it, that does little good without being able to access it from my laptop.
