I installed windows 8 32-bit by mistake so I formatted my pc and installed 64-bit, and now when I connect my external hard disk (1 tb silicon power) it doesnt recognize it.
And in the device manger it says:

Other Devices:
?Unknown Device

i tried checking for software updates but got nothing back
P.S. (When I had windows 8 32-bit it used to read the external hard disk just fine)
