Okay, I have an external hard drive (500GB) that works fine on my old computer, but when I plug it into the new computer it doesn't like it.

To be more precise it says "Unknown device" and in the device function summary it tells me "windows has stopped the device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)

Anyone have any idea what that's about? It's the HD I usually do my vidding from and it's still working when I plug it into the old computer.

Edit: I've tried switching the cable with the one from a HD that does read fine, but it didn't help, so not a cable problem.


(I feel like such a geek with two computers whirring away side by side right now.)

Oh God yes. i7 quadcore with hyperthreading & 8GB memory. *geeks out* And I got a 34 inch monitor, which is throwing me for a loop every time I look at something. *g* It's so pretty!

You'd have to turn your head to see it all!!


I has MacBook. With wonky DVD drive that won't burn anything anymore.
