When i try to connect up an external harddrive (Mobile
disk with a Toshiba 40gb harddrive) I get an error on the
driver filters. The 2 drivers it's trying to install are
PartMgr and drvmcdb. Anyone know how I get the latest
downloads for these components or does anyone have a
Mobile Disk with toshisba drive via USB connected to
their XP system that can tell me drivers it's using and
send me working ones if you have them ? thanks

You don't need to install any drivers for this kind of drive. Just connect,
go to Computer Management -> Disk Management and partition it. The only
problem I had was finding an external USB 2.x disk enclosure which was USB
1.1 backward compatible to be able to also use it with my laptop (1 out of 3
worked :-()
