Details:

GRUB 1.99-27+deb7u1
When I have my external 2TB NTFS formated USB 3.0 hard drive model STAC2000106
attached to my Dell Latitude D830(it only has USB 2.0 ports) GRUB wont display
it's menu. It happens every time a GRUB menu should appear after starting with
the drive plugged in. I can have the drive pluged in during POST, unplug when
it asks for my finger print and plug the drive back in once the GRUB menu
shows, and things work fine, but if the drive is left in the USB port when
GRUB menu is supposed to show up, the GRUB menu won't show.
GRUB works the same irregardless of rather or not my USB G700 mouse is hooked
up.


Misc System Info:
I currently have Debian 7 64-bit, but this also happened with KUbuntu 12.04
64-bit.
Windows Vista 32-bit.
VirtualBox installed.
Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T7500
(4M Cache, 2.20 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
4GiB 666MHz Ram
NVIDIA NVS 140M 256GiB Video
1920x1200 display (WUXGA)
Gigabit Ethernet port
Modem Port (never really used)
DVD burner
