RE: Ongoing problems with SP1

I would start by going into the device manager and deleting the USB
installations. After you delete them, right click on any device in device
manager and select "scan for hardware changes". This will reinstall the
device. I have noticed this problem is more prevalant with cruzer mini
drives than any other. If this does not work, I would try to find a new
installation disk that has sp1 included.

If you want to try to uninstall SP1, go to the following KB:
