XP don't assign letter to removable USB


Recommended Posts

XP Professional SP3 don't assign letter to removable USB drive, though:

- it's properly detected and hardware works normally (changing ports or flash drives gives no result, on other PCs flash drives operate normally),

- I have no network or external drives, so I found no precedent on microsoft.com

This problem began when I repaired current XP installation with setup.

I can assign a letter to removable USB through disk management. Then I browse flash drive with Total Commander (explorer this way has a setback - it can write on the flash drives only files/folders with dos-names)

But such rigmarole is inconvenient, so I would be greatful if someone can advise me a way to fix this without reinstalling XP.
