[quote]I noted that my XP hard drive was getting wonky so I went ahead and picked up a new 500 Gb Western Digital. I did a complete re-install instead of copying everything over. I hadn't done a re-install in awhile so I decided it was probably a good thing. Everything went smooth, took all day but it went smooth. And guess what, nary a problem with installing ALL my Stardock Apps with Impulse either! I'm super happy.[/quote] Same here Jimbo! Fortunately I was prepared for disas

I'm not a skinner artist or designer. But I do enjoy presenting desktop concepts from the works of all the World Class talent in the skinning community. A "Shooter." I would imagine any none skinner who dares to present a screenshot would have at least a small sense of apprehension, because it is the work of others and it's being displayed before the court of community opinion. Hanging out with skinners I already know it's an enti

[quote]Then perhaps your next step(s) would be, go into Device Manager and attempt to update the drivers for all the USB entries found in the 'Universal Serial Bus controllers' section. (right click an entry and select Update Driver - and allow it to search the internet if asked) If that fails, remove everything in the USB section and reboot so that Windows is forced to reinstall all the USB drivers and devices.

[quote] I'm wondering if I somehow need to instruct Windows to recognise drives larger than 250gig[/quote] Not at all Starkers, USB on both OS's are suppose to be 100% plug and play with no limitation to drive size. XP Home immediately recognized my 1TB ext. USB LaCie off the top with no drivers installed.
