Hi Folks,

I have a system installed with Windows XP SP2.When i connect a Pen drive (Transend 2.0) in system's USB port it detects the device and a drive is being mapped. But it is not showing the contents in the pen drive. But the same drive is working perfectly in some other Windows XP system.

Kindly help me in solving this problem.


Thanks in advance

Asai

If the files were not created on that computer you may need to take ownership of them. I'm not sure about that as it seems counter productive but that is the usual reason you can't read files. To take ownership look at the link below.
