Plug in the drive,go to device manager and uninstall the unknown device.
Unplug the drive and reboot the system. Plug in the drive and reboot.

A Couple days ago i logged on to my computer to find a error message on the
bottom right saying:
"USB Device not recongnized
One of the USB Devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and
Windows does not recongnize it."
and upon clicking it a list of my USB ports comes up and it has a UNKNOWN
DEVICE in bold. The recomendation is to reconnect it and if that does not
work replace it.
So I took the Hard Drive and connected it to another computer running
Windows XP and it works fine, i can browse the files and even delete and
copy
them.
I have other USB devices plugged in that are working, like my keyboard and
mouse.
anybody know what is going on here?
