    I just plugged in my ipod into USB hub and got a message 'usb hub doesnt have enuff power'.

    and then i removed my HDD for some time..after that its no longer being detected.

    its path was 'I:'

    and now thats been taken by ipod.

    Vista does have weirdest problems which boggle a mind.its an OS which teases and tortures its user.
