vista64 doesnt recognize usb-flashdrive

[Tim]

hello,
this is my very last try to fix this problem!
perhaps the solution is very simple, but i have no more ideas to solve
it.
i just want to use my usb-storages on my system.
neither my 2,5''-usbhdd nor my sandisk cruzr usbstick is accesible.
vista asks me to provide special drivers from the manufacturer.
but there are no special usb-flash-drive-drivers.
the mainboard is a asus p5k. the 64bit-system-drivers are installed.
the joke: my very old 64mb-flashdrive works fine, as well as my
digicam and the memorycard in my handy.
if anyone has an idea- please help me!
greetz,
tim

God dude, mine has the same problem and i'm running a genuine mobile intel
motherboard. It has to be vista. I'm on vista 32bit home basic. If anyone has
a fix please let me know...

Tim,

I have used two different SanDisk Cruisers on my Vista Ultimate
computer, one for transfers and one for ReadyBoost. I deleted everything on
the one I use for ReadyBoost. I haven't had any problems with either one of
them. As soon as I initially inserted them the drivers were installed
automatically.
Have a nice day.

C.B.

Have you tried the "delete infcache.1" 'fix'?

If these are U3 Cruzers that's why. AFAIK Sandisk hasn't yet updated their
U3 software to a Vista compatible version.
