Verbatium external hard drives

[dantes_death]

My HP netbook will not recognize my verbatium external hard drive, which is about 2 years old and which it recognized last week. Help. Do I need a driver for it? If so, where can I find one?

A USB Ext HDD "should" be picked up by W7 using native drivers, could be either a faulrt USB port (not egetting enough power) on the netbook or Ext HDD or even the cable.

Test the drive on another PC.

Thank you. I can get everything else to work on those USB ports and tried it on several ports, so I'm going to try the cable as I don't have another computer to test the drive on.
