HDD not working
I had a problem with an external HDD (put in as an external for 3 years all fine) showing as active, and preventing Windows from booting, I have removed it from the PC and put it in external enclosure, it shows up in My Computer (with the drive number but no size details) but I cannot access it.
I tried to load disk management and paragon HD manager but both programs hang until the drive is removed, even trying to format it all I get is a spinning cricle (mouse), as soon as I removed it the right click options show up, cannot even diskpart as it also hangs, is there a way I can access it to format (I know dammit that I will loose all data on it), as I want the drive back again.
