What is it and does the manufacturer have Vista drivers for it? Not that I think it should need drivers at all...

Question
My Windows ME / 2000 / XP / Vista cannot detect my device, what can I do ?
Answer

Since there is no driver required for these operating systems, the device uses the built-in driver (USB Mass Storage Class Driver) from these operating systems. If your operating system cannot find the device, then it is possible that the built-in driver files were missing or corrupted; please try to recover these files from other computer or from the original Windows operating system CD. You should also verify you system OS has the most up-to-date service packs. Should you still having problem, please try removing and re-installing the device though Device Manager or contact our technical support center.
