When I insert a USB pen drive (I have tried four different models of varying sizes) into my usb and then double click on ‘My Computer’, the device initially shows up as ‘USBDISKPRO (H)’ and this is then joined by ‘3 1/2 Floppy (B). Then the first icon disappears. Neither ‘work’, in that I cannot transfer files to or from the pen drive. I had similar problems when connecting an external dual layer dvd writer. I managed to get it to work once but since then it simply causes a crash. I am running XP Home on a 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 Evesham computer with 1Gb RAM. When I contacted them for advice they suggested I reinstall Windows. I really don’t want to have to do this because of the number of programs I have installed. Does anyone have any ideas?
