It basically says to delete some files from \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS
sptd.sys
secdrv.sys
sptd????.sys
The question marks were there to represent 4 numbers because they are
different for each person (or so it seems like it).

No, it says that "this file does not have a program associated with it
for
performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Options
control
panel." and I'm trying to work on that right now.
I also tried plugging all the devices into my dad's computer, which is
also
running XP Pro (SP2), and they all worked perfectly.

No drive letter is assigned any of the storage devices. If I manually
assign
one, im still unable to access the drive. Both are formatted
correctly and
work fine on other computers.

Is the letter displayed in Disk Management? Has the letter been

I too have the same exact problem when i try to use my iPod or any
usb flash
drive. The devices show up in disk management but not in explorer. I
have
searched EVERYWHERE for the fix. I bought a new PCI USB card and
that didnt
work either. This is a big problem that many users are experiencing
and no
one has provided a fix.

Hello,
Whenever I plug in my MP3 player or my two flash drives, they are
reconized
by Windows and show up in safely remove hardware with no problems
at all.
However, when I go into My Computer they do not show up. It will
not even
show up in any of my programs (they all want drive letters as
well).
It has never done this in Windows XP Home (SP2), it just started
recently
doing this with Windows XP Professional (SP2).
I have reinstalled my drivers quite a few times, and my dad has
told me it's
most likely not a driver problem, after all my network card works
with no
problem at all. After he tried repairing the XP Pro installation
with no luck
I went into disk management and it (the USB device) showed up
there, without
a disk letter assigned. Well I assigned it a letter, and I could
browse it in
Windows Explorer and I could see all my files.
It still would not show up in My Computer. I tried refreshing it
and
reopening it, but no luck there. When I restarted my computer to
see if that
would work, it went back to having no driver letter assigned.
Please help and thanks in advance!
