I have a 128MB flash drive. When I plug it into one of the four USB 1.1 ports on my PC, I get an indication that it was recognized. However, it does not show up in either Windows Explorer or My Computer. PC OS is XP, up to date. I can pluf the device into other PCs and it works fine. I can plug other USB devices into the ports on my PC, and they work fine. Any ideas what the problem might be?

hi i have a similar problem ... mine is a 256 MB flash drive and on any pc at work running win98SE, i have to install a driver. On any machine running winxp , it get recognised as soon as i connect it and it appears in the My Computer and Windows Explorer. However, on one of the pc's running XP, i get the message that new hardward is found but it does not appear anywhere.
The only difference i noticed among this pc and the others is that all the pc's are Intel or Celeron and this pc which is not displaying the drive is AMD, but i do not thing that this has anything to do with the problem!
