If it is not showing or getting any power (any LEDs lighting up? Drive spinning up?) then it would appear to be a USB issue with your laptop. Try different USB ports, try connecting while the OS is running rather than booting up with it plugged in, and vice versa. Update your motherboard drivers. Update the OS to the most recent service pack/security update etc.
