External Hard Drive not appearing in my computer

[raghavendra.rajan]

When i plug my WD passport portable hard drive into my computer, the hd will start up (the little LED will eliminate) and windows will make the "usb connection" sound and down the bottom right of the screen i have the option to safely remove my passport 0740. So windows picks up my hd but it just wont show up in my computer, it works on my other computer just not this one. i have tried changing the drive letters and that doesnt seem to help. Any ideas?

The External hard drive is not visible in any computer.

By not visible in any computer I take it you mean as a shared drive and that it works elsewhere. Try

to set it online. There may have been a disconnect problem for the drive.
