USB drive problem

[M8KWR]

Hi, I have a usb flash drive, which used to work on my computer, but now it doesn't.

It does work in other desktop/laptops without an issue.

When i insert the drive it appears though XP is going to display the new drive in the MY Computer, but only display the B: 3½ Floppy drive, and the main part of the usb drive is not display.

Is there any setting i could change earse/alter to make this work....

It also seems like other usb flash drives do not work either....

many thanks for any help in advance.

I do not understand what you mean by the "main part of the USB"

Try checking in Disk Management and see what drive letters are allocated

Have you tried inserting it into a different USB port on that computer? - or inserting any USB flash disk into that computer?

it seemed my usb drive wanted to use drive letter g, but i had a mapped drive using that, so i changed it.

Many thanks for pointing me in the right direction
