re: USB to IDE driver for External HDD Monday, December 11, 2006 at 5:48 am Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Ray B (393 messages posted) Vince, I've been using a couple different external USB harddrives (different brand cases, too), with no problem in Vista. The needed driver is recognized almost immediately once the USB connection is made. It may be that your external harddrive case has a peculiar proprietary chipset or the actuall harddrive in the case is not fully connected to the case. --Ray B On Sunday, December 10, 2006 at 2:42 am, vince wrote: >just bought a ritmo external hdd case. windows vista keeps asking for a "USB to IDE" >driver.
