I have a portable hard disk attached to my my WinXP computer (Firewire
interface, if it makes a difference). If I click on the "Safely remove
hardware" icon, I get a notice telling me the Ddevice 'Generic volumne'
cannot be stopped right now. Please try stopping the device again later."
If I go into Explorer and try to Format the drive I get a notice telling
me that some application is using the disk, please quit any utilities
and try again later.
There are *NO* applications open. Nada. But of course there are dozens
of "tasks" in Task Manager. How can I find out which of them is using
my portable disk, so I can dismount or format it?
