Hi all,

This is my first post here, unfortunately for some assisstance.

I was using an external harddrive to transfer stuff between computers, and it was working untill after i started overclocking. Now the computer detects the presence of a mass storage device but the drive doesn't show up on my computer. Also, when asked to populate volumes under device properties, its status is shown as unreadable. However, it reads fine on my mac.

Anyone have any idea whats goin on?

Many thanks in advance.

In Disk Management what does it look like?

It doesn't show up in disk management for some reason or another. It basically detects it and does nothing else.

just a quick update:

I found out then when i returned all my settings to default, the hdd ran fine. I'm just wondering if overclocking can lead to usb problems. anyone have an idea?
