Does it work on any other system? Are you sure it is good, and
not defective?

I use the Jumpdrive 64MB on my XP machines at home, and my Win2K
machines at work, with no problems of any sort. No drivers
needed. It gets recognized autmatically as a new drive letter.

What happens on your system?

I use a 1G Kanguru USB 2 Micro Drive at work with no
issue. Our work PC's use Windows 2000 Pro. At home I
have issues using the USB Drive. I have Windows XP Home
on our home PC. The USB Drive doesn't view in Windows
Explorer. I have to open Computer Management and Explore
the Drive (it shows as Drive Z, Mass Storage Device).
It's just a minor issue I wish I could resolve. I've
contacted the manuf. and received much advice from some
real geeks, but I can't resolve this viewing issue.

I had the same problem. Thanks to John's computer management hint, I
was able to determine what the issue is with my system. It turns out
that XP wants to assign the next drive letter after the last PHYSICAL
drive assigned. However, I already had network shares mounted on the
next two drive letters, and it would be a major pain to change them.
So my last physical drive is D:, and XP put my lexar drive at E:, even
tho I already had network shares on E: and F:. As soon as I used
computer management to change the drive letter on the lexar media to
G:, everything works. I only hope this config lasts over a reboot, but
if not, it's an annoyance, not a big problem.

Hope this helps...
