ttabori Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I have a Flash Voyager 8 gig USB drive and it works flawlessly on these operating systems: Win XP x86-64 Mandriva Linux 2009.1 x86 and x86-64 However, Win XP 32 bit does not detect the flash drive (I have full admin permissions on the system). No tray icon, doesn't appear in Control Panel either. It is set up at FAT32 filesystem, switching to any other fs like ext3 or NTFS or xfs does not solve the problem. I have also tried to partition the drive, but XP 32 bit still does not detect the drive. Any help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted August 24, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted August 24, 2009 Is this the same system with three different O.S installed or three different systems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttabori Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 It is 3 different systems actually. I have a desktop with XP 64 and Linux 64 bit OS, a laptop with the same setup, and another desktop with just XP 32 bit. It is just the 32 bit XP that is not detecting the flash drive, but I am still exploring possibilities - it might be an OS issue rather than flash drive hardware issue.

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted August 25, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted August 25, 2009 In this case I might assume this could actually be a OS issue if your able to get it to work on two other systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttabori Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share Posted August 31, 2009 This was an OS issue on the 32bit XP. I have reinstalled the OS on the machine and the USB is now detected. No need for a return. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
