Click Device Manager from the returned list.
Click Disk Drives from the list of hardware
Right-click the USB external hard drive with the issue, and click Uninstall.
After the hard drive is uninstalled, unplug the USB cable.
Wait for 1 minute and then reconnect the USB cable. The driver should automatically load
Check for the USB drive in Windows Explorer

The thumb drive you have came already formatted and ready to use. It will read as a DISK because it works the same as a CD or DVD disc. A formatted flash drive is set up at the factory and ready to be used by the new owner. Just copy what you want to move from the computer to the flash drive. When you want to remove data from the flash drive, simply DELETE doing the same as you would on your computer PC or Laptop.

Just plug the flash drive into a USB port on a computer, the computer will see the flash drive as a drive, windows will usually open autoplay, and ask if you want to open the folders.

If not just go to my computer, and you should see the drive listed under your C: drive.

Make sure you move the arrow( thumb slide) on the flash drive so the port sticks out so you can plug it in.

If you need more help with this post a reply

No driver needed, when plugged in it should just appear in My Computer. If it doesn't that means the memory stick is dead, junk it.

Empty your "Recycle Bin", to permanently detect some "hidden" files on the JumpDrive.

If necessary, try a "quick-Format" to reformat the drive, deleting all "hidden" files.

Hi If your card is SDHC version is possible that you card adapter doesn't support it, you have to try another one.

do you hear the USB hardware installation tones from windows when you plug in the the drive? If so then you are know the USB port is working. If you do not..try other USB ports. If you hear the noise...Right click on My Computer and click on Manage. Click on Storage and then Disk Management...see if you are having a conflict of drive mappings (i.e. F:/ or E:/)..you can relable the drive letters by right clicking on the drive in the right pane and selecting Change Drive Letter.

Honestly, it is most likely a defective memory card or not compatible with your camera. Sorry.
