Windows 8.1 - Computer freezes when external harddrive is connected

Re: Computer freezes when external harddrive is connected I know it's bad to reply to one's own reply if no one has. However, since there doesn't seem to be a way of editing or updating the post, I thought I would add that I have run a virus check with Norton 360 Premier Edition today, which...
