If you format the USB does it then work OK?

Does the same pendrive/s behave normally and accessible on any other working PC?

Corrupted system files most often can cause this problem. Run the option 2 in this tutorial SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker - Windows 7 Help Forums and check whether it could find and repair the corrupted files.

Yes .It works when I format the drive.

Do you eject pen drives or just yank 'em out?

Hi All,
Greets,
KiranM : Sir,

1.If you are looking for the tools to check drives, consider these 3 links :
4 Tools to Test and Detect Fake or Counterfeit USB Flash Drives • Raymond.CC
6 Tools to Test Read and Write Speed of USB Flash Drives • Raymond.CC - Page 2
3 Tools to Check and Test USB Flash Drive • Raymond.CC
( H2testw & CrystalDiskMark do it sufficiently well for Usb Flash drives, External & Internal hard disks)

2.What's the status ? Some questions, from previous posters, are still unanswered !

Thanks & Regards. ...

I eject them..i remove only when "safe to remove your drive "dialog is shown..

Hi KiranM,
Glad to know that sfc/scannow (@jumanji ) solved your problem. Please mark the thread as solved.

[[[ I would also like to take this opportunity to share my own experience. I installed XP Pro SP3. But whenever i inserted any USB drive, It was not accessible in 'My Computer' but it was showing well in Device Manager & Disk Management. Among other problems, the major related problem in the device manager was the flagged 'SM BUS' ( chipset component ). I installed latest chipset & all chipset components were installed now. But there was no change in status for usb drives. Then the latest usb card reader driver updation/installation solved the problem ]]]

Thanks & Regards. ...
