    Hi all and a Happy New Year to you.

    I have a strange problem that I hope you can help me with. I have 2 USB flash drives but only 1 will work on my pc. If I check device manager when both are plugged in I get the "device cannot start (code 10)" error message on the other drive.

    When I plug them both into another pc with similar setup (both XP Pro with SP2) they are both recognised immediately.

    As it is not the flash drive I presume it must be a configuration problem but have no idea what.

    Any suggestions?

    Is what switched on in CMOS?

    If you mean USB yes, I have 4 USB ports and all are being used quite happily with other devices except this particular Flash Drive.
