RE: Usb Drivers Question

Hi,

Sometimes resolving USB device driver recognition issues like you seem to
have can be resolved by deleting the INFCACHE.1 file, which can get corrupted
with bad
data and cause issues like you appear to have. The file is located at:
C:\Windows\inf. There, scroll down to the INFCACHE.1 file and right click it
and select delete. To do this, you will likely have to give yourself
permission to delete it, because of Windows built-in Security. Just right
click the file, select Properties and then click on the security tab. Let us
know whether this procedure does anything. Sometimes it does and sometimes
not.
