XP OS does not recognize memory stick

[wediscount2]

Recently installed XP Pro on an older Sony Vaio PCV l400
and everything went fine except XP does not recognize it
at all. Before upgrading the OS when I would insert a
memory stick it would start automatically, or from my
computer the icon for the memory stick drive would be
there. The Sony Vaio PCV l400 came with a built in mem
stick reader.

okay what I have found out. I updated my vaio grt 160 from home to pro. I found out that sp1(a) deletes my mem stick and my usb ports (drivers or whatever) and they do not work. So when I uninstalled sp1a my office 2003 does not work but my mem stick & usb works. welcome to the world of bill gates. I am teaching myself fedora & suse9.0 (linux) and when I get it down bye bye windows. If you figure out a way around let me kno
