I have recently bought myself a new Max Value USB 2.0 / eSATA docking station from Amazon. The problem is I cant get it to recognise through Windows xp using my eSata connection. I also have tried to use the usb connection likewise no such such luck. Although when I turn the station on via the USB connection the computer recognises docking station, as the safely remove icon appears in lower conner. When I clink on this icon it describes a "Visualdisk usb device" attached, but when i plug my formatted hard drive in (powering on and off) it doesn't appear in Windows or through device manager. It didn't come with device driver cd and the hard drive works when I use it in separate caddy via usb and eStata. Any help and ideas would be appreciated.
