    USB memory stick problem

    Hi all

    AMD 64 X2 dual system with 4 gb ram (A8N-SLI Premium board) with Vista 32 bit
    Vista see my USB key when I insert it but I get this error:



    Device driver software was not successfully installed

    I see the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon but this will not respond when I use it

    What can I try to fix this
    My HP K60 printer/scanner is working with USB

    Thanks

    Try other USB slots...

    (Check within the device manager for IRQ collisions...)

    I'm seeing the same problem. The memory stick appear (as "(FS) FLASH DISK" in
    device mgr), and I can browse it, copy to it etc - 5 seconds later Vista
    removes it and prompts for drivers to be installed.

    I sense a bug.

    Did you check the BIOS settings related to USB and to hard disks?

    Re: USB memory stick problem

    I can not use it Jon

    If I wait a long time I see F in the Explorer

    Do you have a AMD system ?
    With Win XP there was no problem on the same system

    Yes, AMD with Vista x86 RTM. Tried the same memory stick on an Intel with
    Vista x86 RTM and it worked fine.

    The chipset is an nForce, could be a bug in the drivers - nVidia drivers have
    been pretty aweful throughout the Vista beta.

    Open Device Manager and expand "Portable Device", then plug the device in.
    You'll see it appear and then immediately disappear. We'll have to file a bug
    report on it.
