BSOD when inserting portable usb hdd
My Hp Notebook automatically starts a BSOD restart cycle when I insert my Seagate 3TB portable hdd. I can't even get to the boot screen, it's just a nonstop cycle. I tried safe mode, that also continued the cycle once the usb was inserted. If I take that hard drive out, and restart the computer, it works fine. I have other portable hdd, they work just fine as well. It will only BSOD once I put in the Seagate 3TB. The hdd itself isn't clicking, overheating or anything else, it was fine until about a week ago when the bsod nonstop cycle began.
Please help, I just want to get the files off it & be done with it. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
