XP USB Drive not detected or installed fix

[CCT]

'It did show up in Diskmanagement on my brothers comp, but I couldnt initiate it, so no luck there.'

Is that the computer you mentioned that it 'did work on'?

It is possible the USB cable is bad.

First of all, thank you so much for taking time trying to help me! Means a lot.

That's not the computer it worked fine on. That was the third laptop which I don't have any possibility to operate on anymore. I never looked in Diskmanagement on the computer that I couldn't initiate it before. But it's basically the same problem that I have.

Tried another cable now, but nothing changed.
