490091	2006-10-08 09:29:00	gidday hope this makes sense, i've got a USB drive that was working but now doesn't show up when i plug it in. in prog files theres a folder for it (u-storage tool 2.9) with another folder for the drivers. in win explorer/my computer there's 3.5 Floppy A, local disk C, & flash disk D,(flash disk????) but no E or F or whatever. i thought d drive was the cd/dvd one. i actually reinstalled the drivers and there's no problems in device manager. hope someone can help with this	kydim (5621)

If its there check and see if there is a drive letter double assignment. If there is double up of drive letters right click on the usb drive choose "change drive letter and paths" Its not often that you get a double up but it sometimes happens.	beama (111)
