I bough a new hard drive and I'm attempting to copy stuff off the old hard drive to the new one. I tried it using Windows Vista and Windows 7 but no go. Then I tried installing some 3rd party updated drivers that were supposed to fix the problem now my Windows Vista disk won't boot. Has anyone had this problem before and how did you fix it?
SMTP Delivery Failure Semaphore Timeout Period Expired. IIs6 SMTP is going to be out of the picture in the next 6 weeks-once the migration from Exchange 2003-2010 is done. There is no AV on the box-lovely, eh. I'll keep digging.

I had the same problem in Windows 10. I uninstalled all USB drivers from Device Manager and then rebooted. Windows 10 automatically does a fresh install of the drivers.
From what Ive learnt, its a USB3.0 specific problem.

You must rollback your system to before the drivers update were done.
Boot into Safe mode by pressing repeatedly F8 when Windows is loading, then restore to the latest restore point dating from before the change.
Once your system is back to a working state, you might post separately your data recovery problems. I don't believe that it's a driver problem.
The motherboard had issues with its SATA controller (drivers or hardware I don't know.) I moved my hard drive over to the RAID SATA controller and it worked for about another year before that died as well.

I had a problem copying from a logical partition on my laptop hard drive to an external USB3.0 drive. Turns out the cable was bad. I swapped the USB3.0 cable and the transfer completed successfully.
