Re: USB 2.0 flash drive and XP Pro

I would appreciate a response a little more exact. I did find a hotfix for
Serial Bus Protocol 2. Didn't fix the problem, well not completely.
Computer still responds when i try to access the drive, I get a drive letter
assignment, however will not read the drive. CAnnot access disk management
with this drive inserted either.

For a drive that works flawlessly on any other operating system, XP Pro sure
has a problem with it.
Surely its not that hard to run a simple flash drive on this OS?

Any further assistance would be appreciated.
