XP wants driver when USB device is inserted

My usbstor.sys is the same as yours.

This is driving me nuts now as it was a clean install.
Maybe I'll have to do a repair install and see if that will work.

Ok this is my answer... form another friend.

In the registry (regedit) and making sure 'DevicePath' says '%SystemRoot%\inf under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion.

Then make sure all files and folders are visible ('show hidden files and folders') and delete C:\WINDOWS\inf\infcache.1 reboot and let XP recreate it.

I did this and it worked a treat.

Thank you for your help I will be back another day.
