In Elevated Command Prompt
Post outputCode:reg query HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\explorer
Run REGEDIT and browse to HKLM\SYSTEM\MountedDevices
In the right pane you see a this (and much more):

Hi dave (OP),
Did those drives EVER work properly with that OS as installed now?
What was done to that system, just before it stopped working properly, best you can recall....?
Thought about it longer, my suspect is:
SOUTHBRIDGE issue (chipset), just the driver hopefully.
Here's your spot for it's downloads:

Why aren't my USB Device Divers not working on my laptop?
