Just today I've noticed that when I visit some websites a box will pop up at the bottom of the browser window, in this box it tells me if it is a trusted site or not. If I click on the settings icon...

So true. The only problem I have now is the Smartware software keeps telling me there is a firmware update, I've stopped it from loading on start up because it was annoying with the pop up every few...

I might leave the firmware...

That was a quick reply :eek:
Yes it's showing up in disk management. Would I have to format the drive or partition it for windows to recognise it?

Thanks for that. When it arrives I will format to NTFS first and then put my stuff back on to it.

Thought as much. Thanks for the help every one.
Just a quick last question. I have ordered a 1TB drive, would it be best to format it before use? Plus I want to put a couple of partitions on it,...

Oh well that lasted long. Extended test got to about 70% then stopped, windows explorer crashed and the only way to get it back was to unplug the drive from the USB.
Did that, restarted pc, but it...

Running an extended test on the diagnostic tool now.
There was a DOS version on their website but it didn't say if it was compatible with Windows 7, only went up to vista.
Will see what this...

There could be a problem with that, it's an Acer shop bought PC plus I don't have any cables to connect it to the motherboard.

Think I will do that. Problem I'm having now is when trying to transfer everything over to my internal HDD. It will work for a while and then crash Windows explorer and the only way to get it to come...

It's always been connected to the PC and is only ever switched off when the PC is. It is set to power down when not in use because I don't need it all the time.
Just that it's got all my music and...

Thanks will have a look into that.
I had also read that it's not good to shut down or boot up PC with an external HDD connected. Apparently it can cause damage to the drive, am I correct?

I did a bit of looking around this afternoon at different sites and you would be amazed at how many bluetooth dongles don't support Windows 7.
Will have a look on Ebay later to see what I can...
