i cannot have more than one iEEE 1394 external HD plugged in and turned on at once. (it is not the drives, i tested them on other computers and they work fine)
i have one plugged in the rear panel port, and the on board header. i can turn either of them on by themselves, but once the second hard drive is powered, windows will not read it, and it prevents my computer from shutting down or starting up properly..i have to turn them off, then manually turn the computer off. They also cannot daisy chain on this computer either. (they work fine on other computers)
:help:
would this be my hardware or my OS? :help:
my computer:
windows xp home
nforce 680i lt sli
intel c2duo E6600@2.4g
2x 1g patriot RAM
xfx 8600gt video card.
