Not sure if this is your problem, but here goes...

On my windows XP boxes, I have the same problem. I insert a usb drive and it comes up as an unknown device. If I resinstall the drivers, it finds it and says its an unknown device. If I reinstall the driver again, it finds it.

The problem occured when I ghosted (imaged) the computer with Ghost Enterprise 1.0. I believe I did not run sysprep. If I am correct, the ghost of these images without the sysprep mini setup, breaks the plug and play ability of windows. How do you fix this? not sure. I am going to try and reghost and see if that fixes it. So... maybe your plug and play detection is broken.

Hope this helps in some way.

Solved the problem... kind of
The USB extension cord I was using was faulty, and thus burnt the USB memory drive...

Bought a new one, works perfectly.
