ahillman3 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 I just got a 16gb Survivor. After I plug it into a USB port and let all the hardware detection do its thing I changed the drive letter since it defaulted to an existing mapped drive. That appeared to work fine. Then I tried to examine it in an explorer window, it doesn't show up, however if I go to a Command prompt and change to the drive letter I had mapped it to, it appears to be accessible and functional. Any ideas on making it show up in the explorer window? Thanks, Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahillman3 Posted August 22, 2008 Author Share Posted August 22, 2008 Drive manager has the drive letter I changed it to, and nothing else. Since I can access it from a command prompt I would suspect something to do with the way explorer finds drives. I'm going to reboot and see what happens. After all it is Windows.

ahillman3 Posted August 22, 2008 Author Share Posted August 22, 2008 Reboot worked. Apparently it had trouble with the generic drive driver installation. It redid that driver after the reboot, and then it worked just fine. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
