Can't Detect Removable USB Drive - Can't Use Digital Camera
Dec 12, 2005
All of a sudden my PC isn't finding a removable drive when i plug my camera into the USB port. I'm trying to copy pics from my digital camera and have always used the removable drive function in My Computer...now it's not working. other USB hardware (keyboard, mouse etc) are working fine. I've changed the cable, installed the camera driver disk, tried finding new hardware, and tried different USB ports to no avail.Camera is an Episilom 1.3 digital dreams and is working fine. Running Win XP SP2 on AMD Semprom 2800+ 2 GHz processor. Mobo is ASRock K7Upgrade-600

My camera worked just fine for a couple of months, using UBS cable. Then suddenly my computer couldn't detect the camera, although it's listed in the hardware device list, and say it's working fine. Checked connections: fine.
I've downloaded the drive from the vivicam website; I've used the disk that came with the camera, and nothing seems to work. Reinstalled it. I have the latest windows XP updates.

After I uninstalled some Dell printer software from my computer, my Cannon camera and Samsung scanner do not work. I have deleted the devices and connected them again but when XP tries to install the drivers I get this error: "Windows cannot load the device drivers for the new hardware. The Driver may be corrupt or missing. (Code 39)".I have reinstalled SP2 then SP3 but that did not help.

my XP SP2 doesn't recognize my Olympus FE-100. It installs it as "Unknown device". I have no problems this kind with my printer, mp3 player, but i had the same problem when trying to connect my friends watch which has usb memory in it (it works fine on his computer- XP). I tried to connect my camera on Win ME and it works properly. I know this has to do something with my XP, i just don't know what. I tried to uninstall- reinstall the camera, stop-restart the WIA but nothing helped. There is no driver for it because xp should recognize it at least as a storage device.

This is not really a tweak as such, just a very simple thing you could do with your digital camera that most people don't think about.Do you have a digital camera that shows up as a removable storage device in explorer? Well, start using it as one!You can use the memory cards on your camera for storing documents mp3's or whatever you choose to store there. Perfect if you need to bring some files to a friend, but the files won't fit on a diskette and you don't have a CD burner - just save it on the camera!

I recently (two weeks ago) upgraded my system from W98 to W2k. The first time I installed, the program , I did it keeping my w98 folders etc. Ther were some errors and I tried to re-install, choosing the overwrite option. (also downloaded service pack one! I tried to download service pack 4 but it told me there was not enough memory) I have been left with two W2k directories. I have been using the most recent one (the preferred one) and have slowly been copying my important files using my flash disk from the other W2k directory. The only problem I have had is that althought the drivers and soft ware are installed, everytime I connect and switch my digital camera on, the sytem reboots. Iwanted to "defrag " the preferred W2k directory but was told there was not enough disk space. I thought then to uninstall programs on the other W2k diectory that I was not using. ie. mainly software etc for which I have disk and have reinstalled on the preferred W2k directory. Well after I had finished I rebooted, and then the trouble began! I cannot get into the "preferred" W2k directory. I swear I did not change or remove any settings or programs.

more precisely, what leads XP to decide what is removable and what isn't? Example: System 1 is a P4 built in a Shuttle SFF case with the provided MB; 1 SATA hard disk with three partitions, 1 DVD-ROM on PATA, 1 floppy on floppy channel, 1 multi-format flash reader on USB; the system sees two of the flash slots as removable storage. System 2 is an Athlon 64 built on an Epox Nvidia+ MB. 1 SATA hard disk (with two partitions), 1 SATA DVD-ROM (using a bridge adapter), 4 hard disks on PATA, 1 floppy on floppy channel, 1 multi-format flash reader on USB; the system sees _both_ SATA drives as being removable along with two of the flash slots. Either system properly sees an external hard disk on USB or Firewire as being removable.

While transferring video clips from my digital camera to my computer, the media players show images upside down. There is no problem when transferring to other computers.

I have just reinstalled XP Pro. I have a SATA hard drive and have to install drivers during install. I didn't install the drivers this time assuming they would still be in the system. Ever since XP thinks the hard drive is a removable drive. I tried reinstalling again but nothing.

I have a computer used for weekly backups that will utilize a removable hard drive that gets swapped out every week for offsite storage. In this case, I will have two of these removable hard drives, only one of which will be in use at any time, swapping in and out with each other every week.Since these hard drives will also contain the OS, how do I deal with XP licensing and authentication? Since there's only *one* computer, can I install and authorize a single copy of XP (Pro) on both removable hard drives? It seems unfair I would have to buy two copies of XP if only one is going to be used on the single computer at any given time.

I would like to use several removable hard drive bays on several PCs.Then have a hard drive with XP on it and take it with me to each machine as I need to. It does not need to hot-swap and I doubt I am breaching the Microsoft EULA because I could only use it on one PC at a time.I believe that the activation is based on points gathered from the items installed in each PC it is installed on and they would differ from PC to PC. Especially things like the NIC with it's own MAC address.

I just bought a new Western Digital Harddrive and a new CD drive(Aone or someting i belive). Anyways i installed both of them and i can see them in BIOS. The boot order is the following: Cd -- Floppy -- Harddrive. When i pop in the xp cd it wont boot. I know the cd works cause i tried in my labtop. What can be the problem? And how can i possibly solve it?
I have also tried Msdos disk. I put the disk in and went to my cd drive; then went to folder I386 and then typed "winnt.exe" which went into Windows Xp Setup and gave the following error "An internal Setup error has occurred. Could not find a place for a swap file. Setup cannot continue. Press ENTER to exit."

Before I start, I should tell you all that I am re-posting this with all of the original correspondence at the end.I've done as described, put both drives back into their proper place on the tape and into the proper order (DVD-RW - master, DVD-ROM - slave). On a hunch, I decided to pop in a DVD-R disc, and this was detected just fine. I also put in a DVD-RW disc, but it was not detected. Seeing as how I have data I want to append to an old DVD-RW disc, is there anything left to do?

In device manager under IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers -> Primary Controller for Device 0 under advanced settings the transfer mode is set to: DMA if avaliable, the Current Mode is: PIO Mode.The hard drive is a 80G western Digital i think the WD800JD which is on its own ide cable connected to the primary connector on the motherboard. I am using windows XP Professional and the PCCHIPS MB. Also, when i start up my computer and it detects the devices for the hard drive it says its in Ultra DMA Mode 4 or 5, but in windows it isnt.

I wanted to burn a CD and so I put the CD into the computer and opened up windows media but it can't detect the disk or the drive. I went to another burner and the same thing occured except this time I got a message saying the following: "There are no compatible CD drives reported."I then exited and popped in a disk for a game.. I hear the drive accept the disk and it sounds like it is about to load but nothing happens. Its like the cd drive is non functional. My question is what might have happened and can I fix this/ how?

I wanted to do is remove Vista from it and reinstall XP. I have already run DBAN (Darik's Boot and Nuke) to wipe the drive, but WinXP does not detect the drive. I have Windows XP Pro SP1. Now, I have tried the recovery CDs to ensure the drive has not been deemed unrecognisable from DBAN. It still is recognised, both in the BIOS and by the recovery software, but my XP CD doesn't even see it. What I was thinking of was slipstreaming SP2 into my CD. So I need to know two things:
1. Would doing that make any difference?
2. How do I go about slipstreaming SP2 onto my CD?

I have a problem which many others seem to share, which is that the Scanner and Camera Wizard has suddenly ceased to appear automatically when downloading from a camera. Until a few days ago, I could plug my Olympus into my computer with a USB lead, and a box would crop up offering several courses of action. I would choose the one which permitted downloading the camera files to a folder. Next the Scanner and Camera Wizard would pop up, and after a few clicks, the camera files would be downloaded to my hard
drive, and any unwanted shots would be deleted. I mention all this because some people appear to think that the Scanner and Camera Install Wizard is the same thing, but it isn't.Various cures have been put forward, like uninstalling Real Player 10, finding wiaacmgr.exe and renaming it to Scanner and Camera Wizard, and reinstalling the camera. I have tried these without success, and the wiaacmgr file is not present on either of my XP computers (one Pro, the other Home). I have also downloaded Autofix.exe, which found nothing wrong, and tried to persuade Autoplay to do the business.

I recently recieved my new seagate 160 gig HDD to replace my old one. According to the instruction manual, any versions of XP prior to sp1 and 2 will detect the drive as 137gig instead of 160. The install disk I have, however, is for XP without sp1. What would be the best approach? The software included with the drive gives you the option to transfer the boot info to the new drive (but i doubt that installs windows), and to format it to 137gig and later "expand the partition".

I used Regseeker *sigh* and now my slave drive is not detected. It does not show up in the device manager list. What may I have removed to cause this? I think Regseeker backed up the registry files I deleted. I tried to restore the files and received an error...
If any more details are needed let me know.
