Drivers are corrupted or missing (Code 39)
All my USB drives are gone. I get the message, "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)". One of the solutions I saw was to remove any UpperFilter and LowerFilter keys in two registry values. I did that, disabled and enabled the drives but still no go. I also ran Microsoft Fixit but it was useless.
I tried a Windows repair install but it did fix it either.
Next step is re-install Win 7 I guess right? Or would it be something that even a re-install won't fix?
Any other suggestions?
I'm current with all updates and am on a 64bit Home Premium.
Thanks much.
