Hi! Sorry if this has been posted but here's my issue:
I'm having a problem in safely disconnecting my seagate 400gb usb external hard drive on my win xp laptop. I get the following error message: "the device generic volume cannot be stopped right now!
I read a few message boards that maybe Norton Protection and the recycle bin could be the issue however in researching the norton product I have (2006 Norton Internet security with Norton goback) it doesn't appear as though I have that option. In checking my recycle bin there is no Norton option.
Would anyone PLEASE assist me in figuring out what another cause of this error may be?
Can I just remove the hardware without doing the "safely remove hardware" way? Can I just turn the external harddrive off?
Any guidance/help would be greatly appreciated! I've spent hours on this already and I'm so frustrated!
Thanks in advance!
