What could be the problem? I recently re-installed all the USB hardware
but still no luck.

USB - Belkin 2.0
Ex HD is a BlueMedia Device
 
Is this a new drive? Has it ever worked? Can you try it in another computer?
Have you checked for any jumpers? Are there any lights on?
 
Use the USB port back your computer, some front port have no enough
watt to support HD

Did you go to Disk Management (via Control Panel or My Computer) and Partition
and Format the disk?

on.........unfortunately no other PC to try it on....
