Hi
First post on a new problem. I am running a brand new computer XP pro with a 320Gig HD and Intel dual core processor.

I used to have an aging 40Gig computer that gave up the ghost two weeks. Attached to the old computer was an external hard drive a Maxtor 80gig model 3100. It worked fine and still will work perfectly well on my wife's laptop. However on mine I am getting a code 10 error-yellow exclamation mark on the usb port. I tried it on all five of the ports with the same result.

I know from the beginning research I have done so far that it has happened to others as well but there seems to be no definitive answer that I can find for resolving this problem.

Any ideas?

Thanks
