Im dumb k i was told that i should replace my ps3 hard drive would any hard drive do or should it be a laptop hard drive via desk top.

but does it still work on the desk top.
if yes, then you have lap top issues, ONLY.
easy ,huh?

try all lap top USB ports no ext. hubs allowed.
what is wrong in the LAP top OS, unstated)

are you using the correct external power adaptor for both Desk and lap top usage,
have you tried a diff. usb cable.
Laptops can not power the hdd via the USB at all, and in fact
should be avoided at all times. no matter.
the laptop can be infected.
the laptop might have USB issues, with drivers.
do a USB driver update. (no 0S stated)
does the HDD show up in Disk manager, as DISK2
can you set the drive letter?
can you set the volume label on this disk via DM?
if yes, you then can read and write the drive.
as stated on all pages for USB
disconnect all other USB devices, and now try this HDD.
do a full virus scan, and malware scan
do wInDoZ update.
I think i hit them all.

you can only use it as an external on the laptop if you use it as an external you can use on the desktop just plugging the usb also if your motherboard has sata conection you could install it into your desk top.

Get hold of a desktop computer that is working. Open the Hard Disk Drive cover of your laptop. Pull out the Hard disk. Get a cable (an example is Nexstar universal storage adapter) which can be used to connect your laptop Hard disk to the desktop via USB port. A desk top allows multiple drives. This way you can get the laptop HDD as a seperate drive in your My computer, (like you see a pendrive or a CD drive. You can try reading this drive and copy content to the desktop. Pretty easy to transfer data and a useful device to have. You can find this device at http://www.amazon.com/Vantec-NexStar-Universal-Storage-Adapter/dp/B002PXFZ3C

Access your zoom router by using the laptop which still has access to the router.

Your going to have to open your Wireless Network Connection Status window located under your network settings.

If you see this window your going to left click the (details) button


Now you should see a IP DNS server address
for example: 192.168.1.xxx

Type that address onto the address bar of your web browser.

it should take you to your router setup page.

There you will need to check if the lan port is enabled

It means that your laptop is not configured to read your 3200. You must install a software driver in your
laptop to read your 3200 to make them compatible.

Hello,

The issue might be with the USB root in the device manager, hope you are using windows XP, try rescanning the the uusb ho9stcontroller in in the device manager.

Please let me know if you have further issues.

Yes, that correct you can just need to take the hard drive from your desktop and get a external hard drive ecnlosure where you need to put the hard drive and connect it to your laptop via USB cable, check this link for the sampole of the hard drive enclosure that you need to buy http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/Category/category_tlc.asp?CatId=2777&name=Hard-Drive-Enclosure

Hope that helps.........

plz advice your adminisdtrata how to change your laptop harddrive.
 or you not change your hard drive.......some problem when u it open...

Its going to be a hardware thing. Is the drive connected to a UB2 port? The network itself has its own data transfer rate  ( ie. gigabit ) you need to make sure you cables are no longer than 6 ft, its plugged into a high speed port, and that all ports on the chain are of the same speed. If you have the option, go firewire for this. If that does not rectify it, check adminsitrator properties of the drive.

Try setting configuring the privledges setting. Make sure there the network setting is correct, and make sure all user accounts have admin access to network
