Hi,

Having a problem with USB memory sticks on my XP pro
laptop. I have tried it with different makes and still
the same, i plug it in and it installs all the necessary
and informs that it is ready to use, but then does not
appear in My computer or anywhere else. Any ideas?

Many Thanks

Matt

You may need to format it, look in disk management to see if
it shows up there.

goto disk management and assign a letter to it.
