OK I have a Dell XPS with XP SP2 all patched up. I have 2 USB ports in the front of my system - in port 2 I have my external 500 GIG HD set as drive F:. when I plug in any USB flash drive tot he other port it makes my external HD go offline for a sec then they all come back up like nothing ever happened - Need help on this as I use my external HD to edit WWW sites and somtimes as a shared drive to my Ubuntu machine. It also looses the share anyone???

If it is the same you must change the drive letter from your USB flash drive.
