I Purchased a external HHD 3.5 IDE Hard Drive USB 2.0. This is a plug & play. The 1st day i plugged in USB the external hard drive worked perfectly. The next day I tried to use this new Hard Drive Vista windows says "one of the USB devices Attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not reconize it. Why is this happening?

Go into disk management. If the drive isn't seen there, return it.

Now When I Plug HD in Usb Windows says it has detected new hardware and then it says windows needs to install driver software for your cypress AT2LP RC42. What Does this mean?
I know HD is working I Can Hear it Spinning.
