Filter Driver

[Guest]

Whenever I plug in a USB mass storage device (digital camera, T-Flash card
reader, etc.) my newly recovered XP Home on my IBM NetVista desktop
recognizes the device immediately, but then the "Installation Wizard" gives
an error message saying that the "filter driver is invalid". How can I
correct this?

Please check Event Viewer for Warning / Error Reports in the System and
Application logs for the time the error occurs and post copies.

You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Administrative Tools,
Event Viewer. When researching the meaning of the error, information
regarding Event ID, Source and Description are important.

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double
click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a
button resembling two pages. Double click the button and close Event
Viewer. Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of
the message. This will paste the info from the Event Viewer Error Report
complete with links into the message. Make sure this is the first paste
after exiting from Event Viewer.
