Hello,

Brand new server with Windows Server 2003 R2. The flash drive device loads
fine without any errors and is seen under Device Manager listed under drives;
however, the USB drive is not seen listed under My Computer. I've tried
three different flash drives and rebooted the server.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks.
 
Re: USB Drive recognized but not seen

you probably need to asign it a drive letter. go to start run and type
diskmgmt.msc

Re: USB Drive recognized but not seen

Thank you David. That was my problem. Originally, the USB Drive was using the
same drive letter for a network drive. I changed it to another letter and it
instantly showed up. I appreciate the help.
