![]() I have u usb flash drive/mp3 player. it works fine on my laptop (xp) and one work pc (w2k). however, on my main pc (on w2k), when i plug it in, it loads on, gets a drive letter and then removes itself and i get the windows message 'you have unplugged a device without stopping it etc......' then it reconnects, and disconnects repeatedly every few seconds ![]()

my usb hard drive works fine in the front or back ports on my main pc so i am sure they are ok, and the mp3 player works in other computers, so its only the mp3 player on the one computer

ok tottyspotty, my usb hard drive (2.5" 40GB) works fine so I know the usb ports work, it is my 1GB mp3/flash drive that has problems on my main pc but works fine on others. the problem is the mp3 player on one pc. maybe it is the drivers corrupted,when i remove the hardware and plug in the mp3 it automatically installs itself so i dont get a chance to replace the drivers

problem solved, there was a directory \winnt\usb which had some usb drivers and also a winnt\system32\drivers\usbu2a.sys which i deleted. mp3 installs fine now. i think these are for win 98 and possibly 2 different process were trying to install the usb drive. i'll have a look in the registry and clear out any references

That would have been my 1st question; did you have correct/latest driver for the USB port installed ? Did you install the correct driver for the USB item ? But, now it seems to have been solved. [those drivers were about the only things different between your home PC and the others (where all was fine) ! ;-)
