Hi all

After disconnecting my external hard drive by clicking the green arrow bottom right is there anyway of reconnecting it apart from turning the power off/on

thanks

Goto system in control panel, then click the hardware tab, then device manager, select the top item in the main list and select scan for hardware changes.

Re: Connecting external hard drive

I assume this is a USB rather than SCSI/Parallel device.. if you disconnect using the taskbar icon.. it should redetect if you pull the cable out and put it back in again.
