[QUOTE="martinbrownart, post: 799980, member: 85682"] Is there any way to force start a Lacie 2.0 USB external harddrive ?? I have had this external hard drive for 2 yrs on my old iMac 10.3.9 , without ant major problems . But for the last 2 days the icon has not appeared on the desktop. The light flashes green for maybe 5 mins , and then turns to amber, but never appears on desktop . Have waited more than hour , and still nothing happens . Have tried various possible solutions ......... unplugging all the cables . restarting the computer etc etc Went to Disc Utility and it showed up as being there . Tried to restore as well but said I had input /ouput error Error -9972 ?¿ Is there a way to force boot start it up , for example ?¿' . Any help out there , would really be appreciated as i have all my work stored there and cant get to it . Thank you [/QUOTE]
