Some windows copies have this problem, Normaly the windows install drivers for the usb memory stick, you don't feel it, you see only that it is working correctly, so in this case, try finding a driver for your memory stick (no. or brand) by searching on the internet, and it works.
Check your antivirus...try disabling the antivirus for a bit then try the USB device if it works then get a new antivirus
you will need usb data drive at least 4 - 8 gb
