connecting an external hard disc to a USB port caused a system crash

Which version of Mint are you using ?
What kind of system crash is it ?
Is it a kernel panic ? Do you get any error messages ?

Dear Mr. LE BIHAN,

thank you very much for contacting me.

It is this version:

http://www.linuxmint.com/edition.php?id=94

I did the verification of the MD5 checksum after the download was finished.
Checksum was same as on the web site.

MD5: ee3d6e2ca498bc7685b7f17cdb5f2eea

Download seems to be O.K.

The screen was full with messages for a short time.
In case it happens again and the time to take a photo is enough, I will
provide a photo.
The screen turned to be black and the only way to make the system
running again was
to hold the power button pressed until the laptop was restarting.

Thank you very much for your help,
best regards,

Martin
