Hello Zepgal,

 

You can change the  user account type to Administrator in the control panel -> User Accounts.  Hopefully that will do it. Otherwise, I'm not sure what else the issue would be.  I would contact HP directly.

Kevin:

Can you please email me the latest driver?  I also have the HP SimpleSave md1000h external hard drive and have tried unsuccessfully to back up my files which is a real problem since I have had issues with my laptop and now need to send it back to HP for repair.  Can you or someone help?


Thank yo

Hello:

 

Could you send me the latest software as well? I have the SimpleSave md1000h.

 

My last backup failed. The restore co. tells me it is a firmware problem...?

All:

I did download but have tried now to back up and it still does not work.  I even let it back up 12 hours with no success and again yesterday.  It got to 2% and just stayed there for six hours.  I have decided to get a new external hard drive and get everything backed up.  I am now worried that I might lose all my data.


Thanks to everyone for all your quick responses and assistance.  I really appreciate it.

There is one thing to keep in mind when using this zip file. This hard drive actually has a CD drive with it. The software belongs on the CD portion so it can autorun. Make sure that the zip file is extracted to the CD drive.
