Crismond,
When you have the USB device plugged in is it showing up in Computer
Management (under Storage | Disk Management)? Just right-click MY Computer &
choose Manage from the context menu to get into computer management
When you removed the device did XP release it properly or did you get the
Unsafe device removal error?

Just purchased a PNY Attache USB 2.0 Flash Drive. Worked great when I
first plugged it into a WinXP machine. But upon removing it and then
plugging it back into the XP machine, the found hardware icon presents
itself in system tray, but the USB flash drive is not listed under My
Computer. Listed in Device Manager with red "!", and code 38, "driver
already loaded" error message. The only solution seems to be rebooting
the machine, which is ofcourse unacceptable.
This USB flash drive works great on a Win98SE machine with generic
driver, and the same machine booted with a Live Knoppix CD. Yes while
running Knoppix Linux OS the flash drive is detected and given an icon
on the Knoppix desktop, and can be removed then plugged back in, without
having to reboot.
I've never owned one, but this seems like a next generation deal. One
can install and run applications on it. It has a tutorial and managment
software that boot up on a WinXP machine as soon as you plug it in, but
maybe this is whats boogering up its operation in Windows XP.
Thanks in advance
Crismond
