Hi

I have Windows Pro SP1 with SP2 installed + frequent updates and I am stiill
having problems with plug 'n pray.

Apparently, my driver for pheripherals 'Mass stockage USB' (or whatever it
is called in
English cos I have a French computer) is

Version 5.1.2600.0
Date 01/07/2001

Big surprise as I kind of expected to have sth a bit more up to date in view
of all the updates I've done.

Also, when I go onto the Micrsoft site, there are links to 3rd party drivers
but I can't find an update Microsoft drivers themselves.

Clicking on 'update this driver 'and letting Windows search on the NET
doesn't work either

How do you update a Microsoft Plug 'n Pray driver?

Thanks

Dave Neve

That is the correct driver Date & Version stamp for a USB Mass storage
device. Could you provide the exact Vendor & Model # of the device
you're having difficulties getting installed/running ?

Dont use microsoft drivers at all, use the ones that came on disc
when you purchased your usb; or if you dont have the disc, search
for them on the net.
