USB Mass Storage devices won't install
Hello all
Well this is a strange one.
Anytime I try to plug in a "new" (e.g. never plugged in to this computer before) USB Mass Storage device, device installation fails. When I click on the balloon that says device installation failed, it says "No driver found". If I manually choose a location to search drivers and choose \Windows\System32\Drivers, Device Manager chooses "USB Mass Storage Device" but says "could not install because there was an error". (Gee, thanks, so helpful :))
I am getting this error with an old iPod Nano (1st gen!) but it will also happen with USB Memory Keys etc.
Any ideas?
