xp barfs on USB flash drive


Recommended Posts

Recently, my Windows XP machine stopped recognizing my Corsair Flash Voyager drive, which I was using for half a year without any problems.

When plugged into a USB port via a Dell monitor hub, it does not recognize it at all (unknown usb device).

When plugged directly into one of the front or rear usb ports, it mis-recognizes it as a "SM324BC memory bar" and says that it is not formatted.

Other machines have no problem accessing the flash drive, so it doesn't look like it is faulty.

I installed SP3 but it did not help.

Removing everything USB-related does not work as the keyboard and mouse are both USB and the system stops responding as soon as I try that.

Please advise!

Thank you,

Alex.
