Ok, thanks. But no. That page did not help. I had already been to it. Which just tells me what the light sequences mean. And mine is blinking the top half. Which as the chart says means it is in sleep mode.
I Really need some help here guys.
For me, the statistic has become that whenever I need troubleshooting help with a product, I get next to no help, or no replies at all, to posts on the "help" boards.
Please don't be just another statistic for me.
I will try and be more specific with the problem:
I'm running on Windows Vista 32 bit. I have had a Maxtor One Touch III Turbo 1.5 Terabyte for over a year with hardly a problem with it.
But all of a sudden my computer doesn't see it at all. It's not even telling me "Unrecognized drive". It is just not seeing it. AT ALL.
It's not showing up in the device manager. I've looked all around the device manager and it's not there.
On the front of the device, the upper half of the light is blinking (Which as the above chart tells, means sleep mode, power save mode whatever) I can hear the fan going.
The power cable has the green light on it. It appears to be properly powering the unit.
I've rebooted the pc. I've tried changing usb ports. I've tried changing usb cables. I've tried installing the maxtor software, but when the time comes that software prompts me to connect the hard drive, it sees nothing.
Please some help. Any help!
