Hi,
I'm using WinXp Pro, recently having problem with the thumb drive.

When I plug in the thumb drive to the USB port system did found the drive.
But when I go to window explorer/My Computer I can't find the drive

Any one got solution to it? Thanks
 
I've encountered similar situation, where I followed this workaround:

Open Device Manager and under USB, remove the corresponding Host Controller entry, and then Scan for hardware changes. As soon as I did this, the controller was reinstalled, new hardware was detected and the folder for the USB drive ( I:\ )automatically opened. This problem does not occur to me very frequently, but atleast 1 out of 15 times.

I'd suggest you create a System Restore point before trying this.
