USB Hard Drive Locks up Windows Explorer
A month ago, my Dell E6410 laptop was re-imaged. I re-installed Acronis 2013 and immediately began having stability problems when I plugged in my USB hard drive. At first I thought it was the drive, so I swapped devices. Same problem. Tried the drive on another laptop. No problem. Explorer would lock up so severely, that power cycling was the only way I could recover the computer.
I'm running Windows 7 Enterprise N SP1.
Finally, I went down a path recommended by Microsoft and disabled all non-MS processes. That seemed to work. Suspicious it might be Acronis Non-Stop Back-up related, I enabled all the processes but that one, and everything seems okay. I've read in these forums about other process issues affecting Explorer.
Am I on the right track, or am I missing something? I recall having other "stability" issues with non-stop back-up, so I stopped using it some time ago. Everything works perfectly when backing up to my NAS drive.
Thanks.
