alright, i've been having a problem with USB Devices for a while now. The problem is that some USB Devices work fine and others don't. My mouse works fine. And when I need to print , I plug in my printer and windows detects it and it works fine. Same thing with my camera when I have to copy pictures onto my computer. No problems there.
But when I try to plug in my MP3 players, the mp3 players don't show up at all. I plug them in, then windows shows that the device was recognized (with the little notification in the corner for new hardware detected and the 'sound') , but when I go to look for the mp3 player(s) (they should show up as a drive letter - removable storage in 'my computer'), nothing appears there. Same thing with my USB thumb drives.
So i'm not sure why some devices work while others don't. I've already tried removing all my USB drivers and letting windows reinstall them but that doesn't seem to do the trick. My mp3 players and thumb drives are recognized perfectly on my other computer so I know there's nothing wrong with them. Any idea what's going on here? It's obviously throwing a hissy fit with removable storage devices but i'm not sure why.
Oh yeah, and also, my mp3 players and thumb drives, and any other device i tried worked fine before. Not sure why out of the blue certain devices stopped working.
