Externl USB drive, causes XP to freeze on boot
Hi folks. Ok, ... I have a 40GB PIKA Flycase ext usb2 drive.
If it is plugged into a usb socket whilst booting up XP home, the boot will freeze. The only way to restart is to reboot, and remove the usb device. I could live with this if it wasn't for the fact that I have certain programmes that need to see the USB drive immediately. Ie - I cannot hotplug it in post boot.
So, any ideas on why this happens? Can't help but think it must be something pretty simple??? (Hopes)
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
