    vista64 doesnt recognize usb-flashdrive

    hello,
    this is my very last try to fix this problem!
    perhaps the solution is very simple, but i have no more ideas to solve
    it.
    i just want to use my usb-storages on my system.
    neither my 2,5''-usbhdd nor my sandisk cruzr usbstick is accesible.
    vista asks me to provide special drivers from the manufacturer.
    but there are no special usb-flash-drive-drivers.
    the mainboard is a asus p5k. the 64bit-system-drivers are installed.
    the joke: my very old 64mb-flashdrive works fine, as well as my
    digicam and the memorycard in my handy.
    if anyone has an idea- please help me!
    greetz,
    tim

    God dude, mine has the same problem and i'm running a genuine mobile intel
    motherboard. It has to be vista. I'm on vista 32bit home basic. If anyone has
    a fix please let me know...

    Tim,

    I have used two different SanDisk Cruisers on my Vista Ultimate
    computer, one for transfers and one for ReadyBoost. I deleted everything on
    the one I use for ReadyBoost. I haven't had any problems with either one of
    them. As soon as I initially inserted them the drivers were installed
    automatically.
    Have a nice day.

    C.B.

    Have you tried the "delete infcache.1" 'fix'?

    If these are U3 Cruzers that's why. AFAIK Sandisk hasn't yet updated their
    U3 software to a Vista compatible version.
