When I plug the EHD in the USB and I turn it on it freezes at logon,when I unplug it starts up normaly.
When the PC is on and I plug it in the PC freezes until I unplug it.
Check Your Power Supply Drain

Link, comment.

http://reviews.cnet.com/5208-7590-0.html?forumID=67&threadID=28919&messageID=328179 has about every recovery method noted however your issue may differ. I can't comment much but if this was my machine I'd install the latest motherboard drivers.
Why can't I tell more? The details about the host machine are missing.
