Topic: external usb 2.0 shuts down my laptop

[zensuke101]

i'm just wanderin
whenever i plugin my external usb 2.0 in my laptop
 it totally shut down my laptop
wala akong idea kung problema
need help ASAP

how old is the laptop? specs? my guess is kulang sa supply ng power. since when you insert an external HDD, it consumes more power as compared to say flash drives and such. have you tried using USB cables na dalawa ang dulo? those are specifically used for HDD para dalawang port pag kunan ng power

Wala ba problema kapag sa ibang laptop o pc mo kinabit yung external (I'm assuming) hdd?

Ano model nung ext hdd?  Baka yung controller lang ang problema (maybe shorted) at buo pa naman yung drive mismo. Try mo ikabit yung hdd sa ibang usb hdd enclosure.

wala yan sira lang yung external usb mo, pwede na corrupt mo or you mess up the current driver of external usb mo..  twing nakasaksak yan pag magbukas ka ng desktop or laptop mag rerestart lang ng paulit ulit yan.. tangalin mo lang twing mga power on ka... tapos saka mo na lang saksak pag fully windowed na... actually buo pa rin yang external usb mo, na mess up mo lang yan kasi cguro sinubukan mo syang maging executable drive pag mag rereformat ka... try mo ibang USB yung hindi mo pa ginagawang executable drive wala naman magiging prob kahit nakasaksak..
