    All,

    Ok this is just wierd... in the past month or so my e1505 (2ghz, XP MCE, 1gb, x1400) has stopped recognizing USB drives, SD cards, Memory Sticks, etc.

    It goes thru the motions... you hear the tone indicating a new device is there... the device shows up in the system information but never appears in my computer as a valid drive.

    Anyone else experience this? have any ideas to resolve it?

    Thanks,
