Just to let you know, your website .exe is almost fixed, ill have it tonight.

And as for the external hdd...

have you ever dropped it.
Check the usb connections.
Go to into start/control panel/administrative tools/computer management/ and on the left side there will be something thats says disk management.

Click on that and check if youre drive is showing.
IF IT IS NOT. your usb controller inside of your external hdd may be bad, those cost like 30 bux, just get a new enclosure.
Or the disk may have bad blocks on it, you always want to properly remove an external hdd because stuff can get corrupted.

Since ur pc is detected the hdd, there is a chance ur external enclosure is fine, try the drive in another computer. if it shows, run a scandisk on it and try to repair any damages.
Just keep me updated with your progress, ill email you tonight.
