If this hdd appears in device manager just double click on it then driver tab / update driver .

If that doesnt work then delete all the entries like I said under USB controllers then reboot

704906 2008-09-14 06:37:00 Your USB drivers are playing sillies - From MS regarding "This device is not configured correctly. (Code 1)"
This device has no drivers installed or is incorrectly configured.

Have you unplugged all USB devices from the PC BEFORE trying to remove the drivers as speedy instructed ?

704907 2008-09-14 06:42:00 That would mean your USB keyboard and mouse probably wouldn't it? gary67 (56)
704908 2008-09-14 06:56:00 That would mean your USB keyboard and mouse probably wouldn't it? Yep sometimes.

One reason the USB drivers wont uninstall can be something is holding them open.

If the PC does have a USB keyboard/mouse those can be left in - other items like the External drive, hubs and printers can all be removed.

What you can also try, but may have no effect is click start/run type sfc /scannow Press enter - mind you it may ask for the windows CD if it needs it.
