    I'm still in a pickle over USB flash drives.

    Cannot see any flash drives.

    Device Manager >
    Code 28: The drivers for this device are not installed

    But clicking on "update driver" > win7 cannot find any drivers online. Nor can I find any by manually googling.


    It's the current Sandisk extreme 64gb 3.0 > Can someone plz link me the driver to download. I'm stuck.
