Windows Showing USB Mass Storage Driver That Is Not There
A few weeks ago, I settled in front of the PC to watch a streaming
movie. I had left a USB mass storage device plugged into the PC. All of a sudden I got a blue screen. After removing the device and rebooting and restoring, I got the situation taken care of and could use the PC. But, now every time I boot up, Windows detects new hardware in the USB mass storage device. I go into Safely Remove Hardware and undo it. I have even plugged it in, done the Safely Remove Hardware, and then removed it. I also go into the Device Manager and uninstall it. Unfortunately, it keeps coming back. Just now I did a boot disk scan and got the blue screen of death again. I was able to reboot properly again, but the Windows is still detecting the device. I have tried shutting down, removing all peripherals and rebooting. It happens each time. Thanks for any help. |

It could be a bluetooth module that is detected by your system. The
reason you get BSD (Blue Screen of Death) is because the driver associated with it is not compatible with your system. It could also be that you installed an updated driver on your system which happened to be a bogus driver. There are many sites distributing them and some people will click anything that says "Download" on that wonderful button. hth Richwyl50 wrote: A few weeks ago, I settled in front of the PC to watch a streaming movie.
