Plug In and Automatically Windows 7 Crahes! Please Help

I have an WD Passport external hard drive.  It worked fine for me yesterday, today it crashes my computer.  Can anyone help?  I have Windows 7 which works fine without the drive, then when I plug in drive via usb windows crashes and I get a blue screen.  Then I left it reboot and it contined to crash windows.  Was told that there are a few CD Burning softwares that I should avoid but I don’t have them.  Does anyone have any info on this?
