External hard drive was installed on my work computer. i am now trying to move to another computer as my work computer failed and it doesnt seem to have driver software any longer. I need to access my accounting files so its important that I get this resolved. Toshiba does not have drivers for this model on their website (not that I could find anyway)
Try another computer, or get an external hard drive case, put it in, plug to USB port. You might want to check your BIOS to see if it is picking it up. If you're reading from FAT32 computer, you will not be able to view NTFS files. You can, however, convert the drive from FAT32 to NTFS, using a 3rd party program. A great one is MiniTool Partition, you don't have to lose the installed Windows, and still manipulate your Hard Drive, size-wise, convert FAT to NTFS and vice-versa

Hi Vicient,
I have the following questions to evaluate the problem.
1) What's the port your harddrive supported? Is it standart IDE cable or SATA.
I have a hardrive utility software that can detect and access any type of harddrive but you need install it at running windows.
Please email [email protected] and dont forget to used the subject "Driver Problem" if sound interesting for you.
Sincerely,
Philip

what is your operating system? have you upgraded yo a higher version? if you did then you must have installed a driver thatis not designed to work withy our OS now.

Try booting to the SAFE MODE (F8 at boot) opening Device Manager, deleting all USB Root Hubs, rebooting in normal mode, let hubs re-detect, then reconnect the drive

whwhat the others have so far suggested are ways you can format the external Harddrv, Besides that if you want to convert the harddrv to NTFS( the Drive has to be an NTFS drive by default from manufacturer)
and If you are having trouble Backing up data Please use the software,"Preloaded NTI Shadow software "
the drivers might not be installed for this device check the leads that attach to your external hard drive make sure connections are good and leads are good
click start control panel administrive tools computer management device manager scroll down universal serial bus controllers you could see a yellow question / exclamation mark? ! or a red X
you will need to update/reinstall drivers
right click to reinstall drivers
if you can see your usb drive but its not working
ports(com&lpt)right click update driver if this fails to fix the problem
check the USB leads that attach to the motherboard usually red white green black make sure they are securely seated and have no dust build up on them dust will cause static and a lot of unforeseen problems for a computer and its parts
hope this helps you
