I have two of those USB drive (those small ones, I can't think of what they
are officially called). They are both 128MB.
When I plug them into a USB 2.0 port the 1st time XP installed them and said
they were ready to use. The problem is the only
place they show up is in Device Manager and it says they are working fine.
They do not show up anywhere else, not in My Computer, not in
Computer Management in the drives section. I just tried the Hardware
Install Wizard and it saw them and said they were installed and working
properly.
I have tried them in 2 of the 3 machines here. I took them to the computer
store and when they plugged them into their computer they came right up,
opened
a window and displayed the contents of the drive.
This is a new install of XP with SP1 (on a newly built machine) . I have
SP2, but have not installed it yet.
I just plugged them into the 3rd machine here and it popped right up in My
Computer under "Devices with Removable media". It just says Removable Disk
(J
Any ideas WHY it won't show up on SOME of the computers here?
Appreciate any ideas/help.
Thanks.
