When I plug in my PNY Attache 2.0 jump drive into my new computer, it asks to
install driver for my USB 2.0 FD. If I click on locate and install, nothing
is found. Device mgr reports this is not configured correctly. I know the
jump drive is good, as it works in my laptop. I tried disabling in device
mgr., and then re-plugging in, but that didn't work either. Do I have to
reinstall the USB Mass Storage Class Driver? Can this driver be gotten off
the MS web site? What is the name of the actual file?

Thanks!

I never needed a driver for my thumb drives (Toshiba,Memorex) but if it
needs a driver I would look for it at the PNY site.

Thanks, but already tried that. Their suggestions about searching in
Windows\System32, and then various subdirectories didn't work

I have been looking for fixes for about 3 weeks. I found some very helpful advice from some people on these blogs.Microsoft and HP were no help at all. This is what I did to fix the problem, first I checked my c: drive for a file named usbstor.inf open command prompt cd to c:/ then type dir usdstor.inf /s this should find the file if it is not in c:\windows\infdir then copy it and past it there. The file was not on my hard drive anywhere so I copied it from my XP profesional computer as well as the USBSTOR.sys file this file goes in your c:\windows\system32\driver file, I also copied the following files from my XP system c:\windows\inf\usbstor and c:\windows\inf\usbstor.PNF. The usbstor and usbstor.PNF files were copied into the c:\windows\inf file on my Vista computer. I also changed a line in the[/color][/color]
Regestery HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\microsoft\windows\currentversion double click on Device Path and add :%SystemRoot%System32 to the end of the line. I rebooted the laptop and plugged one of my usb devices in, it did not see it automaticaly however I went to device manager and double clicked on the usb device and said to upgrade driver(do not let windows look for drivers) do a manual search brouse to c:\ then have the computer search. I have been able to use all my usb devices after I did this.[color=blue][color=green]
