Solve : windows 7 won't recognize my 4GB Dane elec flash drive?

Answer»

windows 7 on my Acer Aspire 5810T won't recognize my 4GB Dane-Elec flash drive but my other laptop (Acer ASpire 1670) running XP will read it ok.  I hear the usual 'docking' prompt tone when I plug it into the new laptop but NOTHING else.
I've tried dane-elec website for downloads but no luck. I contacted them by phone and have sent an enquiry. I tried the right CLICK 'computer', 'manage', storage but the flash drive didn't show. Any ideas?
WalneyshackDo other USB devices work?all my other flash drives work, including a 500MB Dane Elec (black nacre) same range as the 4GB(red). Quote from: walneyshack on January 10, 2010, 10:19:18 AM

I hear the usual 'docking' prompt tone when I plug it into the new laptop but nothing else.
At that point, if you open Computer, does the flash drive appear there as a "Removable DISK"?no, there's just the audible promptDoes it appear in Device Manager (Start -> Control Panel -> System (view small icons to get to this option) -> Device Manager)Actually, I'd like to know if it shows in disk management (start - run - diskmgmt.msc)ok thanks guys but disk management display shows devices as I plug them in and unplug them but I only get the sound with the 4GB flash drive. Device manager is the same. Does the USB drive show in Disk Management ? ?no, it doesn't show in disk managementPut it in the PC it works in...
