USB external disk not plug&Play

[Guest tree leafs]

Hi,

just got a new dell box with windows server 2003 enterprise.

Noticed that when plug in a USB external HDD, windows has no response - it

does not detect the new device. Only a reboot can get the USB HDD displayed.

Is there anywhere in Windows settings that blocks the USB external HDD

plug&Play?

 

thanks in advance

Does anyone know why this is? I have the same issue. Is there a workaround.
