I run XPhome and XPpro on separate NTFS partitions,originally the home OS detected the drive fine,after installing the pro OS, I found the drive was not being automaticly detected by it,i get a (code42) error in device manager under USB mass storage.
I have tried to determine the duplicate driver problem by removing the driver from the home OS/along with many other trivial fixes/no luck.
Oddly enough when the drive is powered down/then back up it finds it and corrects everything in device manager untill next boot.
Why would the OS think there is another instance of USBSTOR.SYS running?
MY only other USB hardwares are a logitech mouse, and canon scanner[which is not installed on the pro OS]
Thanks in advance, Dave
I have already tried removing the scanner from the device manager and having it unplugged//no difference!
