September 4, 200619 yr wtf? it's all usb drives, this one, as well as 3 others work on my laptop but are not working on this desktop. help?
September 4, 200619 yr Isn't your desktop too old & cannot right initialize your drives? Did you install it before?I mean, was it working on your desktop properly sometimes?
September 4, 200619 yr Author it was working about a week ago, dunno what i changed for it to stop.i upgraded the usb drivers a few minutes ago, still no change
September 5, 200619 yr It has nothing to do with the drivers. The problem is that your pc doesn't detect the file system present on your USB devices.
September 5, 200619 yr Like Nitroshift said, windows can't find the filesystem. You should check in disks administration if the partition is still seen ( from the screenshot it shouldn't be ). From here you have 2 choices :- You need the data that was on the drive and you'll have to try to restore the partition or the data using for example acronis disk director (partition recovery) or R-studio (data recovery).- You don't need the data that was on the drive and in this case, you can try to destroy the partition and createit again using disks administration.
September 5, 200619 yr Author i dont think its just the individual drive, as i said that its all usb drives i have
September 5, 200619 yr Then it's due to how windows handles removable storage devices. I'd check for viruses / malware the pc first then try to troubleshoot this issue.
