USB 2.0 HD Not visible in OSX after parallel 3.0 freeze

Hello,

I have a weird problem with my external HD. It isn't automaticly recognized in OSX Leopard anymore after parallels 3.0 freezed when shutting down XP SP2. But when I go to de harddisk utility in Leopard it is shown, I can even access it from there but then the HD has a blue icon in stead of the yellow one that should be on the desktop. Parallels doens't shut down ok anymore, it keeps freezing on shutting down xp.

When I put in my MacBook Pro when it's booted in XP (Bootcamp and Parallels) it's recognized as an external HD. When I remove it safely en then reboot to OSX it stille isn't there.

Anyone with a suggestion,hint,tip or solution?

Thanks
Patrick
