I have a Samsung pen drive. If i plug it in, XP picks it up, installs the drivers and then says its ready to go...but it doesnt show up in My Computer. Everything else works fine, even on that specific usb port. Also, the pen drive works on every other computer. Ive tried formatting and still got the same problem...only with pen drives, any pen drive.
Anyone else had this problem..if so..is there a solution?

I have that problem at work, I had to go into disk managment and change the drive letter becuase it clashed with another network drive, that worked!
