    Windows 10 and a Seagate FreeAgent Desktop external harddrive

    I upgraded from Windows Vista to Windows 10. Now, my Seagate FreeAgent Desktop external hard drive isn't recognized. I did find it and it said there was a driver error. I checked and I have the most current driver available. Any suggestions on how
    to fix this problem so I can use this external hard drive?
