Have you rebooted the machine with the Firewire drive connected and on, then tried reloading QT? Did you exit QT normally or did the app crash? I'd go to your recent files list and purge all recent files as well, (File >Open Recent> Clear Menu) it may be looking for the last file that you accessed on the firewire HDD. Quit and reload, check if that fixes it. Does the firewire drive perform normally under Windows Explorer? Are you able to open a file from the drive despite the QT task manager trying to load something automatically?
Go to the root where Quicktime is installed, presume you've default installed to c:\program files\quicktime. Click the software updater, it should be an executable file (*.exe). It will check with Apple ftp that there are no missing components or newer components in the application and download additional codecs/updates etc. Let it run the install as required. When the app starts, it audits the drives - if the above steps fail (will be surprised if they do), let me know and I'll tell you where to modify your .ini and registry files to fix it.
