    Flash Drive Unrecognizable
    I have a flash drive my computer (running XP) says is unrecognizable. It works fine on other computers. I tried reinstalling all the USB drivers. Did not help. What else could be causing this problem?:confused:

    Check device mgr to see if you have 2.0 drivers installed

    -right click on my computer on desktop and click properties

    -go to hardware tab and then click device mgr

    -go down list and click + sign next to Universal Serial Bus Controllers

    Now look to see if you have this listed there:
    Enhanced USB controller


    If you do not have that there, youi would need to install USB 2.0 drivers

    Post back with what you have there
