I have a Disgo 236 mb usb storage device.
Works on 12 other computers but not advent 3417 running
xp. Computer recognises something being plugged in but
keeps asking for driver. No driver needed nor available

Any ideas please

I also have an Advent computer which had the same problem as you've probably
encountered (Code 28?) This solution worked for me.



The solution to this problem involves using the registry editor (regedit)
with which you should be comfortable or you can cause damage to your system.

While running regedit, conduct a search for the string "LowerFilters". Under
the heading 'Disk Drives" (class "DiskDrive") you will likely find a key
with the name "LowerFilters" with either a null entry or a binary entry.
Click on this value, and either delete the entry or rename the key to
";LowerFilters" to preserve the entry to allow it to be restored at a later
point in time.



You will have to repeat the procedure to correct additional registry entries
if you have more than one user configured for access on your computer
(multiple user configurations).
