Mick, have you gone into your control panel window and then opened the "System" file? Under the "Device Manager" there should be an icon for the drive but it will probably have a yellow question mark next to it. Highlite the device then click on the "Remove" tab. This should resolve the problem.

Again let me know how you get on.

Mike, the drive does not show up anywhere for me to be able to unistall it.

Mick, try uninstalling the device via your "Add Remove hardware options found on the control panel. Once removed, shut down your PC and then restart it. Hopefully your operating system will identfy the device and re-install the drivers for you.

Let me know how you get on.
