Hi,

I've been putting some old home movies from vhs tapes onto my pc and then converting the films to .avi so I can put them onto dvd's. There were so many that I had to get an external hard drive in the end as I was rapidly running out of space. The problem I have now though is that when I copy a file containing the home videos onto the ext hard drive, they play in slow motion in media player but the audio is fine. It's not a problem when I play a file from my computers hard drive only from the external hard drive. I have already had the problem of not being able to put more than about 40 mins worth of a video onto the hard drive because of the type of file system so I found out that I had to convert from FAT to NTFS which I have done.

The hard drive is a western digital 1TB and I have .

If anybody has any advice I would be very grateful. So far I've not been able to find out anything from anywhere including the manufacturer of the hard drive. It's really frustrating!!

Thanks!

What type of port is the hard drive plugged into?
