"done them

When you say, it is not recognising it, what do you mean? It is giving you a message, or is it just not doing anything? Also how long are you wanting for Windows to find it?

On another note what version of windows are you using ?

Is the hard drive light on to confirm power is reaching it?

I assume you have re-booted the pc?

do you have a hdtv? if so it should have A usb port on it.

Or try a mates laptop.

if these don't work, your hdd is fucked. I've had this before.

What hdd is it?

Do the update first see if this fixes the problem. If your external HDD will not normally work directlyin your laptop as it has no operating system on it. What brand of hard drive is it ?
