Re: USB not found

I have been having the same problem on my desktop machine running Windows XP Pro.

You might try restarting the laptop with the flash drive inserted and then right clicking on My Computer, select 'Manage'->'Disk Management'. Right click on the flash drive and select "Change Drive Letter and Path..." and give the drive a different letter like 'Q' or 'W' or some letter not being used. Reboot and test to see if that fixes the problem. Apparently, XP gets confused sometimes when mounting these flash drives on the fly.

Some have reported success with this fix although it didn't help my problem.
