    dont remember installing Acer Power management, what is it?
    if its turned off by the windows, how do I turn it on?
    After the windows finished installing I was able to plug the flash card in and use some drivers that I put there. Then I took it out, downloaded a few more to the card, put it in again and it was not there anymore.

    update: juts turned it on again and got a pop up message " The file 'RTSTOR.sys" on Generic Win2K/XP Multi-LUN USB Mass Storage Driver is needed"
