Re: Seagate FreeAgent 250 GB Exteranl Hard disk not dected by XP machine

Hi there and welcome to TSF.
This is usually a bproblem with your USB drivers. Look in Device Manager by pressing Start, then right-clicking My Computer and selecting Properties. Click on the hardware tab and select Device Manager. Look at your USB controllers and check that they are working properly or whether they have a yellow question mark. It may be necessary to reinstall the drivers.
