USB Mass Storage - Not Recognised in XP

That gives me one idea to try. When I first set up the
system on Saturday, I had three physical hard drives,
each with two partitions (my original 2 IDE drives and my
new S-ATA drive). They mapped at C-F, D-G, E-H. I also
had two CD drives, I and J. After I copied my data off of
the old E-H to the new C-F, I removed the original 2nd
IDE drive and now I had C-E, D-F. The CD drives stayed at
I,J so I then changed their assignments to G and H. The
camera or Sandisk, whichever I plug in, tries to map to
I:. Maybe that old letter has some left over vestige of
the CD. I will try moving the CD back to I: and seeing
what happens. I don't have alot of hope, but it's
something!

I figured it out. I had a netword drive mapped as E: I
disconnected the mapped drive, rebooted, and now my USB
device shows up under E:

The problem is on my home system (I am currently at
work). When I get home tonight I am going to try some
of
the ideas on the website:

Can you let me know when you figure this out, because
I,
too am having the same problem. I'm running XP on a
Dell
Optiplex 260.

Thanks,
Brad

like
the problem I posted yesterday:

Help, I have tried various USB stroage devices
(including
Memory Pens and Multi Card Readers) but cannot get
access
to them. When they are plugged in, there is some
recognition as they appear in Device Manager under
both
USB Serial Controller and Disk Drives. In addition
they
appear in the 'Safely Remove Hardware' section
under
PnP
in the System Icon BUT nowhere in any program. I
cannot
see them under Explorer or under the My Computer
section
or any other option. Please advise how I can get
these
to
appear and be accessed under the 'normal' bits of
XP.

Thanks
