I am running XP Media Center, I have tried plugging in the 2 thumb drives I have and neither gives me a drive. I have gone to the disk manager and it isn't assigning them a drive letter. I tried to assign it manually but it still will not show up in my computer. I have tried uninstalling the device and reinstalling it. I have tried enabling and disabling it. I have tried all of the ports on my laptop, along with one going thorugh a USB hub. Anymore suggestions?

Check your drives on another PC to make sure they work. Also try and get the latest drivers for them which may be more compatible with WinXP

Trying them in another machine is a good idea, but no drivers are required for ME/2K/XP for USB attached storage, so don't go loading any 3rd party drivers.

What are the exact symptoms? Does the device show up in Device Manager? Do you get the connect/disconnect tone when you plug it in and remove it? Do you see it in Disk Management?

It works on another computer, it shows in Device Manager and says it is working properly, it shows in the Disk Manager. Disk Manager doesn't show it having a drive letter. When I manually assign one it still does not show up in My Computer.
