I use my friend's USB flash drive (Corsair flash voyager 16gb) to transfer files from my laptop to my desktop computer.
However, since a couple of days my laptop stopped recognizing the USB key.. while there is still no problems with all other computers.
I use Windows 7 64 bits if that can help.
I tried uninstalling the driver, rebooting and all those kind of tricks, but it won't work.
When I connect it and open the "My computer" window, I see "Removable Disk (G:)" for a moment, then it disappears... then it reappears again and it keeps doing that periodically. I can't even right click then hit "Properties" because it disappears.
As I recall, it DOES work on every other computers, I think it has to do with the driver but what can I do?
