Drive worked fine before replacing the computer's internal hard drive. Now the Maxtor blue light on the external hard drive blinks constantly and the computer will not reconize the external hard drive. Have connected the maxtor with the usb cable with no luck and also tried the 1394 firewall cable with the same results. [email protected]

Check cmos to see if usb ports are enabled? If Windos 2000 you need a usb driver disk.

Have you tried right clicking on the drive and going into properties. Click on security option and make sure that all the permissions for the drive are active with the exception of special permissions. Also look at the advanced security settings and make sure that you have full control permissions. Hope this helps.

I have a disk that worked for me and I am running windows xp. I also have the website address that is supposed to have the 98 drivers which could work perhaps. http://www.seagate.com/ww/v/index.jsp?locale=en-US&name=Maxtor_OneTouch_Drive_USB/Win98SE_Driver&vgnextoid=b07d8b9c4a8ff010VgnVCM100000dd04090aRCRD
Guess you could try them first and if that doesnt work I could perhaps make a backup of the disk/package/mail/ worth anything?
